Acts 20:31-38 The post Nature of Gospel Ministry appeared first on Hixson Presbyterian Church.

This past Monday, worldwide media brought us the news that Pope Francis had died at the age of 88. Network coverage was dominated by this news, with lengthy pieces, hour-long specials and even live streaming showing thousands filing past the body of the Pope. Yet to come is the funeral this Saturday, in St. Peter's Square, outside the basilica where leaders and heads of state from about 170 governments from all over the world will be in attendance. With more on this topic, Crosstalk welcomed Mike Gendron. Mike is the founder and director of Proclaiming the Gospel Ministry. Mike was a devout Roman Catholic for over 3 decades and was taught to rely upon the authority of the church above all else. Mike searched the Scriptures and was amazed to find that what he read contradicted the teaching and tradition of the church he had been a part of for so long. He trusted Jesus as his Savior and now the Bible has become his sole authority in all matters of faith. Mike is the author of the books, Preparing for Eternity and Contending for the Gospel and has produced numerous videos with warnings concerning false teachings vs. the truth of the Scriptures.Pope Francis had a history of false teachings. For example, in May of 2013 he said that atheists would go to heaven if they lead good and honorable lives. In July of that same year, in the context of whether homosexuals could serve in the priesthood, he said that if someone is gay and searches for the Lord and has goodwill, who was he to judge? In November of 2015 he proclaimed that Christians and Muslims are brothers and sisters. In June of 2016 he said that all religions are different paths to the same god.

Based upon the Parable of the Wedding Feast in Matthew 22, Jesus is sending His church to go and reach people who are hesitant to come. The goal of this workshop is to explore and imagine what it's going to take to reach those who are often marginalized or overlooked even by the church. We will take a look at effective & creative strategies to reach everyone with the gospel.     Al Yanno Church Multiplication Director, Ohio Church Multiplication Network

A new MP3 sermon from Puritan Reformed Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Approved by God: Gospel Ministry Without Guile Subtitle: 1st Thessalonians Speaker: Brian Schwertley Broadcaster: Puritan Reformed Church Event: Sunday Service Date: 4/13/2025 Bible: 1 Thessalonians 2 Length: 36 min.

In this sermon, Pastor Schwertley exposits 1 Thessalonians 2:1–12, highlighting Paul's sincerity, sacrifice, and pastoral care in gospel ministry. With boldness amid persecution and unwavering commitment to truth, Paul serves not for man's approval but as one entrusted by God. The sermon sharply contrasts biblical ministry with modern pragmatism, warning against flattery, man-pleasing, and worldly compromise. Paul's example is held forth as a pattern for faithful ministers—marked by humility, doctrinal purity, self-denial, and tender affection toward the flock.

If it is essential that the gospel must go out and increase, what are the means of that increase? It can be summarized in the need of gospel ministers who are devoted to the grace of God in the word of truth.

2 Corinthians 7:2-16:0

Colossians 2:1-5 For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I say this in order that no one may delude you with plausible arguments. For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

Paul in this passage commends his ministry of the gospel. The items he highlights are not what the world would expect from a successful ministry. Paul recognized that gospel ministry was difficult but worth the effort.

2 Corinthians 5:1-10

Colossians 1:24-27 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints. To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Acts 20:17–24 records Paul's final words to the elders of the church in Ephesus. Standing on the shore, he reflects on his ministry among them, urging them to continue in the example he has set. At the heart of this passage is Paul's deep love for the Lord Jesus, his devotion to the people of God, and his unwavering commitment to the ongoing work of the gospel. In this “Gospel Goodbye,” we hear an echo of what should be the passion of every believer throughout history: 1. A Life of Gospel Service, 2. The Labor of Gospel Ministry, and 3. A Longing for Gospel Reward.

Date: 2/9/25Speaker: Joshua ChatmanTitle: The Gift and Responsibility of Gospel MinistryScripture: Ephesians 3:1-13

Colossians teaches us that the gospel is not simply a one-time message that get us into heaven or a safety net from hell that we place upon the footnote of our lives. The gospel is a good message of the supremacy of Jesus that saves us, sustains us, and sanctifies us to the very end when we know it, believe it, and apply it to our everyday lives. Colossians shows us how the gospel of Jesus Christ affects and redeems every single aspect of our lives and, when applied, causes us to be growing in the gospel until Jesus comes back again. Join us as we continue Growing in the Gospel together through our study in Colossians this Winter!

Mike is the author of the books, Preparing for Eternity and Contending for the Gospel and has produced numerous videos with warnings concerning false teachings vs. the truth of the Scriptures.There are numerous concerns regarding Pope Francis. Some have pointed to his ecumenical stance. We've seen his coming together with Islam, his praise of Buddhism and promotion of liberation theology. There's his softening of the stance on homosexuality or the relaxing of rules that previously barred men with deep seeded homosexual tendencies from entering the priesthood.Then in December, Pope Francis (who has accused Israel of genocide) prayed before what was called a 'politicized' Palestinian nativity scene as the baby Jesus wasn't wrapped in swaddling clothes, but instead was wearing a keffiyeh, a symbol of Palestinian resistance. Roman Catholicism has a long history of veering from Scripture. There's their false view of Matthew 16:18 from which they derive their origin. There's purgatory, infant baptism for regeneration, transubstantiation, the selling of indulgences, the sinlessness of Mary and so much more. However, now it seems that the Pope is in some ways moving away from church tradition as well.

This passage is rich with encouragement for those discouraged in their evangelism. We are reminded of our responsibility and inability and yet of God's creative ability to save the lost as he reveals the glory of Jesus Christ to them. It serves as a wonderful tonic to those taking gospel ministry seriously. We will look at this under three main headings: 1. Don't Lose Heart (vv. 1–2) 2. Don't Hold Back (vv. 3–4) 3. Don't Lose Hope (vv. 5–6)

Acts 14:8-14

Romans 15:14-33

Our world pushes the message that we need to lookout for number one. If you've got some money or resources leftover, sure, give that away, but only once you get all of your personal needs and desires. As Pastor Ricky points out in today's message, we see something very different demonstrated in Scripture. The focus is never on self. The focus is on leaning into our Provider in complete faith. When we trust that God will meet all of our needs, we can hold our money and stuff a lot more loosely.

Generosity always stands out in a world that puts itself first. We often see it with a dose of skepticism. We wonder what strings are going to be attached. Well, as Pastor Ricky examines the generosity of the early church in 1 Corinthians, we'll be challenged to increase this aspect of our Christian lives. We've seen far too many cases of corruption in the church throughout the years and we've built up a distrust in how we give but God calls us to give generously, so we need to lean into it with discernment.

The most important issue of all time concerns your eternal destiny. You can be the most conservative, pro-life, pro-Israel person in the world, but if you get it wrong on eternity, you're forever doomed. --This edition of Crosstalk looked at this issue because last week, Pope Francis addressed an inter-religious meeting of young people from different faiths at Singapore's Catholic Junior College. He told them that every religion is a way to arrive at God. However, what does the Bible say on this issue and what carries more authority-- Is it the Pope or the Word of God-- --Returning to Crosstalk to discuss this topic was Mike Gendron. Mike is the founder and director of Proclaiming the Gospel Ministry. Mike was a devout Roman Catholic for over 3 decades and was taught to rely upon the authority of the church above all else. Mike searched the Scriptures and was amazed to find that what he read in Scripture contradicted the teaching and tradition of the church he had been a part of for so long. He trusted Jesus as his Savior and now the Bible has become his sole authority in all matters of faith. --Responding to the Pope's words in Singapore, Mike began by noting that the Pope had a wonderful opportunity to proclaim the Gospel and Jesus who said that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one comes to the Father except through Him. It's this Christ that is the way for those who are lost and deceived. Instead, the Pope chose to be so tolerant that he wants to be all things to all people while denying the words of our blood stained Savior.--Review this Crosstalk to hear much more, including viewpoints and questions from listeners.
