Ministries

Ministry (min·is·try): the act of serving, giving away however much or little we have of God. The active part of Jesus-Brand Spirituality.

"Ministry" is from the Greek word diakoneo, meaning "to serve" or douleuo, meaning "to serve as a slave." In the New Testament, ministry is seen as service to God and to other people in his name. Jesus provided the pattern for Christian ministry—he came, not to receive service, but to give it (see Matthew 20:28; Mark 10:45; John 13:1-17).
