What about disciples of Jesus who do not (and may never) occupy these roles or offices (i.e., apostle, elder, evangelist)? Do they also possess a "ministry of the word"? Absolutely.

What a blessing it is to celebrate twenty years of God "giv[ing] the growth" in the lives of many through the ministry of Way of Grace Church. Some of those lives remain with us in terms of regular fellowship. But most have moved out onto other paths. What a privilege to play some part in God's redeeming work in the hearts of these individuals and families!

More than a billion Christians today rightly reject the claims of the papacy, not because various popes have nothing to teach us, but because such claims do not align with sacred Scripture or the beliefs of the early Church.

Whatever you're presently facing, whatever is weighing you down, whatever is dominating your thoughts and tempting you to trust in something other than God, then please know that the resurrection of Jesus provides us with constant reassurance that everything belongs to the risen King and we belong to him.

The entire Old Testament makes at least one point clear with deafening repetition: there is only God. But Isaiah chapters 40-46 may be the epicenter of that repetition.

If I asked you to think about some passages that help us better understand the Holy Spirit, it wouldn't be surprising if chapters like John 14-16 came to mind or Galatians 5. But if you're looking for the most 'bang for your buck' when it comes to the Spirit in Scripture, nothing compares with Romans 8.
