Ministry Is . . . presents in dozens of brief yet powerful chapters a Bible- based, practical guide to serving God in the local church. The insights here from authors Dave Earley and Ben Gutierrez are primarily written for students who are considering church ministry as a vocation, but they are applicable to any active church member who desires to serve through the church with passion and confidence.

Each compelling entry is set up to finish the sentence that begins with the book’s title. For example, Ministry Is . . . “Casting Crowns at the Feet of the Worthy One, ” “Swimming Upstream (or It’s Not Getting Any Better), ” “Becoming Known in Hell, ” “Loving the Bride, ” “Letting Integrity Do the Teaching, ” and so forth.

Throughout, Earley and Gutierrez stay focused on making the reader “a spiritual change agent, a difference maker, and impact player for Jesus Christ.”
