How Do You Measure Success In Ministry? by Hundredfold4lif(m): 1:09pm On Dec 19, 2021 |
There is this concept in Christian Ministry circles whereby a minister and his ministry are measured or said to be successful based on the parameters of (1) the number of members (2) number of branches (3) the amount of acquired landed properties such as lands and houses, schools (4) the level of luxurious lifestyle of pastoral leadership and members (5) the egoistic, flamboyant display of fashioned dress code and (6) eloquent flow of high pitch grammar during Fellowship meetings. While everyone has his calling, directives and flair as some of us would readily argue, do we say Biblically, morally and with a sense of Divine influence on our lives, that these outlined considerations are what make Ministries and pastors truly successful? In the Supernatural, will GOD accept these even when Godliness, Holiness and conscious Righteous living are absent in our midst? Are we playing church or we are living out the life of Him who loved us and gave Himself in redemptive sacrifice for us all as referenced in Galatians 2:20? |
