Six habits, that if you do them, you WILL BE a minister. They are six basic elements of bottom-line ministry.
No matter what religious title or position you hold, or don’t hold, there are only six things that make you a MINISTER. If you are regularly doing these five things you ARE a minister (cf. 1 Pet 2:4-5, 9-10). If you ARE NOT regularly doing these six things—no matter what religious title or position you hold—you ARE NOT being a minister.
