The Minister's Vision and Reward - Lesson Twenty Four
Lesson 24. The Minister’s Vision and Reward
Note: See The Pentecostal Minister and Growing a Church
A. Personal Vision: My Commitment to Ministry (see Growing a Church)
1. I will affirm and reaffirm the fundamentals of the apostolic faith and Christian living, to myself and to the people I serve.
2. I will pursue life in the Spirit—including communion with Christ, the leadership of the Spirit in all things, and the anointing of the Spirit in all that I do.
3. I will seek a balanced, well-rounded life and ministry: in Spirit and Word, in preaching and teaching, in evangelism and discipleship.
4. I will love, respect, and encourage people.
5. I will be merciful, and I will believe in people. If I am to err, I will err on the side of mercy. I will give people the benefit of the doubt. I will bend, but not break, in order to give people the opportunity to grow and develop.
6. I will not seek personal gain, position, or glory.
7. I will serve God and serve people.
