Kids have the tendency to compare what other parents allow. There are a lot of people who are involved in ministry for the wrong reasons. Whether it be full time ministry, or part time ministry, or lay ministry, or simply lending a hand, many people have the wrong idea of ministry. They think that a large church is a successful church. Numbers doesn t always mean success.
Some large churches are large because the people who attend like a candy-coated gospel.
I d rather have a small church filled with authentic Christians, than have a large church filled with sinners who give God a half-hearted commitment. If someone were to sing a song on the platform, simply to show off their talent, then they are man-pleasers. But if someone desires to minister to the needs of others, and glorify God, then they are God-pleasers. If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ. Authentic Ministry is built on a strong foundation .
