Description
Whose Job is the Ministry? (Ministry in the Marketplace) / Unless otherwise indicated, Scripture references are quoted from The Holy Bible, The New International Version / Publisher: Vision Foundation, Inc. 8901 Strafford Circle Knoxville
Ministry in the Marketplace is a series of booklets which deals with the many challenging and difficult subjects confronting the believer as he seeks to integrate his faith into the fabric of "real life." The intent of the series is to consider these important issues and to expose, evaluate and analyze them in light of the Scriptures. The booklets are not intended to be exhaustive in their treatment of any particular issue, but rather to stimulate readers to reflect seriously on the subject and to provide a "track to run on" as individual study is initiated. In evaluating the thoughts contained in these booklets, the authors encourage the reader to keep the following verses and their implications in mind: • I Chronicles 12:32 Our purpose for the booklets is that we become men like the tribe of Issachar-understanding our times and knowing what we should do. • Acts 17:11 Our desire is that the booklets produce the activity and attitudes of the Bereans-searching the scriptures daily to see whether "these things are so." ⚫ Romans 12:2 Further, our objective for the booklets is that we have a "transformed mind"- that we learn to think. The process of gaining personal convictions from the Scriptures is as important as the product.
