Christ owns the ministry.
Does He govern the way we do it?

Most Christian leaders would readily affirm that ministry be- longs to Jesus Christ. The searching question is whether our decisions agree. What happens when obedience threatens a cherished program, a source of income, or the influence we have spent years building?

With an open Bible and a pastor’s concern, Joseph M. Jacowitz ex- amines how Christ’s servants can gradually begin to think and act like owners.

Drawing on Scripture, church history, and more than forty years of pastoral ministry, he addresses leadership, money, spiritual authority, access to biblical teaching, and the pressures that can turn service into self-preservation.

The Ministry Belongs to Christ leads pastors, ministry leaders, and believers through an honest examination of the work entrusted to them.

It offers practical help for repentance, accountable stewardship, and re-building ministry under Christ’s authority through His Word and Spirit. Throughout, the call is to recover the humility, freedom, and joy of serving the One to whom both the worker and the work belong.

The ministry belongs to Christ.

Let Him have it.
