His father spent many years as a milkman in order to support his family. He also taught Sunday School and served as a lay leader in his church. It's just that now I get paid for it. Walking with God and bearing fruit, not activity alone, is to be our concern. And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ.
Every believer is to have a ministry.
A biblical definition of ministry does not mean the office of pastor or elder only. True joy comes not from holding an office or a position but rather from seeing God work in and through your life. Rather, this position of leader or head that God gives to men does not come without some heavy responsibilities. He who loves his own wife loves himself, for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church. Nothing in Scripture advocates a demanding, oppressive leadership style from men.
