Prayer and Providence

Prayer as a Ministry
—Examples, marks, and the need

People think of "ministers" as people who preach and run churches. But really every Christian is a minister in some important way, and one of the great ministries is ministry in prayer.

The word minister means to serve. Ministry and service are the same thing. In the Greek the words are διακονια diakonia, and λατρεια latreia. These words are used in the texts quoted in this lesson outline.
