This teaching and study material is designed to bring sobriety to the purpose of ministry in the Kingdom. Ministry is a valuable part of the Kingdom. God anoints individuals in the Church with ministries and gifts to glorify Him. However, as the day of the Lord hastens, we find many believers entering into ministry with wrong motives. In addition, others are pursuing gifts for their own personal gain. Learn why God gives gifts and ministries and how to avoid error. This study is derived from 3 distinct works from the Abundant Truth International Leadership Series:
1) He Gave Gifts Unto Men: God's Plan for Ministry in the Kingdom
2) Motives in Ministry: Defining the Proper Motives for Ministry and Service
3) Troubled on Every Side: How God Uses People and Problems to Prepare Us for Ministry and Service It is our prayer this study will aid those engaged in Christian ministry.
