Service Outline
What is it that motivates you and excites you?
Paul’s passion for gospel ministry
1) He serves the church with the Word of God
A servant who brings the Word of God
A Word that is all about the mystery revealed in Christ
A service that entails suffering
2) He works hard to present everyone mature in Christ
Paul labours, toils and strives to make Christ known
All ministry is hard work
But we do it with the strength Christ gives
3) He wants to see Christ formed in others
Paul wrestles in prayer for Christians:
To be encouraged in heart
To be united in love
So they might really know Christ
And be equipped to resist false teaching
What is Christian ministry like?
