We Christians use the word ""ministry"" a great deal-and like any word that is used so often, its meaning can be rather hard to pin down. But if it is important enough to be used so much, we need to be clear about what ""ministry"" means-and that requires us to dig deeply into the Bible, the Ministry Manual God has given us.

That is how this book seeks to answer four big questions about ""ministry"" Who? What? Why? How?

This is a comprehensive guide that has been described as 'an outstanding exposition of genuine spiritual and Christian service...' by the Rector of St Helen's Bishopsgate, William Taylor.

Reviews for Ministry Under the Microscope

""Here is a bracing, memorable and deeply encouraging exposition of the Bible's teaching on the subject of God's work in the world and our part in it. I warmly commend this volume to those who have persevered in Christian service for many years, and to those newly dipping their toes into the privileges and responsibilities of being stewards of the gospel, heralds of the excellencies of the Saviour and labourers in the Lord's harvest field."" - Kanishka Raffel, Anglican Archbishop of Sydney ""Along with True Devotion, by the same author, Ministry Under The Microscope is such an outstanding exposition of genuine spiritual life and Christian service that we set all our staff team and church council to read it over the summer break. The book simultaneously encourages and challenges as Allan Chapple holds up for the reader the biblical benchmark of authentic gospel work."" - William Taylor, Rector of St Helen's Bishopsgate, London
