Meaningful Ministry - Meaningful Ministry Isn't Always Well Received - July 7, 2024
from Shepherd of the Hills - Winchester VA · host Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church
Ezekiel 2:1-7 Christians have the greatest news to share: There is forgiveness, life, and salvation in Jesus! You might expect such wonderful news to be received with joy, eagerness, and thanks. More often than not, however, that is not the reaction Christians experience as they share the life changing gospel that means so much to them. Instead of joy and thankfulness, they're met with rejection, animosity, and resentment. There is a temptation to feel like our personal ministry is worthless and empty when it's received so poorly. Looking at Ezekiel's call, we see that our ministry is meaningful whether people respond the way we hope or not! God gives meaning to our ministry!
