Ministers have received their wages, and some have their minds too much on their wages. They labor for wages, and lose sight of the sacredness and importance of the work.

It's not just being called to the ministry that counts.

Our first remark on this subject is that the ministry is an office, and not merely a work.

One must beware of ministers who can do nothing without money, and those who want to do everything with money.

I see everything I do as an extension of the ministry. It's all about service.

In the community, in the African-American community, one person ought to say something, and that is the minister. The minister is paid by the people. He doesn't work for a big company. He doesn't represent a particular special interest.

The ordinary ministry is that which receives all of its direction from the will of God revealed in the Scriptures and from those means which God has appointed in the church for its continual edification.

I know the world is hungry for good ministry.

I'm not sure ministry can ever have the urgency it requires if it is not aware of evil, both externally and internally.
