The “Church without Walls” Ministry
There’s a new breed or Christian Ministers, Ministering “outside of the box” or “the norm is you will” to reach the lost in any way conceivable and to preach the gospel to the whole world before Christ’s return.
Many people think that only those who work within the church framework and church walls are in fulltime Christian ministry and the only ones really serving the Lord. This concept could not be further from the truth, as these “instant in season and out of season” ministers are proving.
As new ‘church without walls' type of ministries are opening up everywhere our need to adjust our type of thinking is very important if we are to fulfill Gods plan and vision to reach the lost.
Going to church is receiving training and fellowship, but when you leave the “church walls” is when the service part begins. Being out in the world amongst the lost is where our service for the Lord really begins. And this is what is referred to as “out of church ministries” where you become a fulltime Minister in your daily interactions.
When the type of work you do lends to preaching the gospel such as being a Christian Teacher, Chaplin, Wedding Pastor, Christian Counselor etc you can then expand upon your ministry and services and minister to every one the Lord brings across your path. In fact it doesn’t really matter what kind of job you are involved in, the import factor is to partner with the Lord and minister as He leads.
Is it any wonder why the “home church movement” has grown so fast and former ministers and missionaries have flourished in “church without walls” type of ministries? This is truly fulfilling the “Mark 16:15 vision” and taking the gospel where it’s needed most.
Every truly born again Christian called to service is first and foremost called to a “church without walls” ministry. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but ACCORDING TO HIS OWN PURPOSE AND GRACE, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.
Happy Ministering, Souls not Diamonds are forever.
Rev. Dr. Ken Kovach
