Two Things

Ministry is about Jesus and people. Jesus is amazing. People are fascinating.

What's laid out?

But the moment you ask, "Well, who is Jesus, and what did he do?" they can only answer by beginning to lay out doctrine. ~ Gospel Coalition

God?

"God has revealed himself as holy, just, and righteous—but that’s not all. He’s revealed himself as the definition of love (1 John 4:8), whose grace is scandalous, (Luke 15:11–32), and whose mercy leads to our justification (Rom. 2:4). In fact, Jesus teaches us that he is our heavenly Father (Matt. 6:7–15) and Paul goes as far as to tell us on two occasions that God prefers his kids use a familial name like “Abba” when talking to him in prayer (Rom. 8:15; Gal. 4:16)."

Christ's response

"It is urgent that Christians respond as Jesus did when he saw people in great pain. He didn’t pontificate with cold philosophy, nor did he patronize suffering people with pithy aphorisms like 'Let go and let God.' It is precisely because he was God that he did not let go. Jesus’ heart broke and he wept when his friend Lazarus died (John 11:35). He put his hands to work to feed the starving (Mark 6:30–44). He rejected religious bigotry and restored a woman’s dignity and saved her life (John 8:1–11)." ~ The Resurgence
