How to Start a Parachurch Ministry
A ministry is the utilization of God’s gift to serve. A Parachurch ministry is not necessarily a Church but is usually connected to a Church
Tips to help you succeed in your parachurch ministry
✔️ Have a Covering: Make sure you join a local Church and serve well. The local Church is the coordinating system of the Kingdom
✔️ You Must be Kingdom Minded: Let go of every religious mindset and be kingdom-minded. Have a mindset of advancing the Kingdom and don’t be a part of anything that scatters the body
✔️ Have a Core Team: You need a team of dedicated people because you can’t do ministry alone. The purpose of your team is to pray, plan and execute
