Ministry Is Way Too Good Not to Enjoy It (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. We don't often hear about the joy of ministry.Responsibility, yes. Sacrifice, showing up on time .Yet the joy of ministry is what draws us in the first place. Leading the lost to Christ. Introducing a new worship chorus. Being there for a convert's baptismal experience. Seeing the joy as the infilling of the Holy Spirit sweeps over someone.Ministry is as close as we can come to being the hands of Jesus to those around us. So, where has our joy gone? It has been stolen by the busyness and repetitive nature of the very ministry that used to bring us joy.Drudgery has become our new normal.In this book, I want to break that cycle, shatter the new normal, and reintroduce you to the joy that ministry can bring into your life.Today is your opportunity to return to where God wants you to be: surrounded by Him, full of joy, and prepared to spread His joy to everyone in your sphere of influence.Let's get to it.Pastor TimA Message from the Desk of Tim Barker: The most powerful verse about the joy of ministry is 1 Thess. 2:20."Indeed, You are our glory and joy."Hebrews 13:17 says to serve "with joy and not with groaning."Joyful leadership is an advantage for the entire body of Christ.
