As Christian author Warren Smith defines it in his debut, A Ministry Led Lifestyle, ministry in its truest form is love. It's this love that guides him in his life as an associate minister, and it is this love that should guide all of us in our Christian lives. Worshipping God is a cornerstone to being a Christian, but for Smith, sharing the Christian experience is just as important. By providing a distinctly fresh perspective, Smith offers a unique take on how to inspire one another-and how to take the Christian message to the world. One of the most important aspects of ministry that is often overlooked or unknown is that the gathering together of the saints for the purpose of worshipping and praising God is just as valuable as connecting with fellow Christians in a meaningful way. Ministry at its most basic level is what helps people grasp Christ-like behaviors and be encouraged in the face of diversity. As an educational tool for Christians, sixteen meticulously organized chapters with titles like "How to Minister to Your Pastor," "Balancing the Married Home and Ministry," and "The Seed" describe how to best connect with our ministers, extended clergy, families, and fellow parishioners. By being drawn closer to God, readers are able to take a more active role in their personal ministries for the glory of God-and for the good of humanity.
