I am engaged when supporting and leading ministry teams in developing a large vision, along with implementation and the administrative functions required for success. I enjoy making ministry seamless and pleasurable for the staff and team members. I want to utilize all of my gifts and abilities to reach and transform hearts for Christ. Helping individuals and the organization achieve missionary success within ministry is gratifying .
I believe the church is one institution Christ promised to build and bless. He said, "I will build My church; and the gates of Hades shall not overpower it" (Matt. 16:18). Christ's purpose in the world is to call to Himself a redeemed people who would live to the praise of His glory. He is building the church. As a pastor I take great comfort and confidence for having a small part in our Lord's great work.
The corporate functions of the Body all take place in the church. The church is where God has ordained His people to meet together to celebrate the Lord's Supper, to worship Him, and to encourage and edify one another. It is my joy to support God's people with worship, just as the psalmist said, "Come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand" (Ps. 95:6-7).
I am directly responsible to God for the lives of the people at my church. I'm not as personally accountable for how people apply God's Word. As pastor, I need to have a relationship with individuals that promote growth and accountability. I watch over their souls as one "who will give an account" (Heb. 13:17).
I am also accountable to the people in my church. Everything is exposed to them: my life and family, my personal strengths and weaknesses–everything. I cherish that accountability. It is a constant encouragement for me to reflect Christ in everything I say and do. Preparing sermons by researching and writing about how to present Bible lessons to the congregation to meet their spiritual needs is skill and honor I cherish. Officiating at special occasions in the lives of the congregation, such as confirmations, .weddings, baptisms and funerals are ways the church can serve and connect
