While there’s truth in that, Carl challenges us to dig deeper into the biblical meaning of ministry: service to God and others.Drawing from the powerful and painful story of Job, one of the most faithful men in Scripture, Carl reveals how true ministry doesn’t always lead to prosperity or comfort—but instead calls for sacrifice, endurance, and unwavering trust in the Lord. 💔🙏This episode explores:✅ What ministry really means in different life seasons✅ Why Job is a model of devotion—even in tragedy✅ How to serve your family spiritually like Job did✅ The truth that ministry isn’t always rewarded immediately—but God is always faithful✅ How Romans 8:28 gives us hope when ministry feels empty or unrewardedWhether you’re single, married, parenting, grieving, or just seeking purpose—this episode reminds you that your first ministry is to the Lord Himself. Everything else flows from that.✝️ Be encouraged, be challenged, and let’s grow in our calling together.🔁 Listen, reflect, and share this episode with someone who needs this word.
