A Model of Gospel Ministry

Sometimes we can fall into the trap of thinking that only pastors are called to gospel ministry. But Colossians 1:24-29 makes it clear that God calls every Christian to live for him. This involves suffering for Christ, proclaiming Christ, laboring for Christ, and laboring for Christ. God will accomplish his purposes in the world, but he will accomplish them through his people. Let us join with Paul in striving with all our energy to follow Christ in gospel ministry.
