Dennis M. Campbell writes this: “All Christian believers are called to ministry. Sometimes this idea is not understood because of the tendency to use the term ‘ministry’ to refer popularly to those who are engaged in full-time professional service in the church, usually ordained ministers. Thus we speak of one entering ‘the ministry’ and we mean the occupation of the clergy… This narrow usage of the term ministry is unfortunate, however, because it seriously truncates the wider and richer understanding of Christian ministry in the Bible
and church teaching.”

Have a blessed week,
Pastor John
