Paul's view of ministry starts with others-centeredness. The new form of worshipping God in the New Testament is ministry. This means caring for the whole person, not just in easy ways but speaking a word of admonition when necessary as well. When it comes to evangelism or missionary work, our post-modern culture deplores these practices, viewing them as forms of imposing Christian culture on others. Instead, evangelism and missionary work is not about changing another's culture but sharing the truth of God's love with others.
