At once, they left their nets and followed him.\" Matthew 4:19-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat do you think of when you hear the phrase, \"full-time ministry?\" Maybe you think of a man in a collar or flowing robes, a preacher on TV, or a missionary in the bush of Africa, the frozen tundra of Siberia, or the jungles of the Amazon. Perhaps you think of a campus minister who has helped you get to know Jesus in a personal way. To a degree, these can all be examples of full-time ministry. From here on, when I use the phrase \"full-time ministry,\" I am mindful that all ministry--in every sphere of life--is a full-time calling. However, for the sake ofclarity in this book, when I refer to full-time ministry, I am referring to a man or woman whose primary occupation is gospel ministry and all it entails.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFull-time ministry is a job, a vocation, and a career, but, as we will see, it is so much more.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis subject is often misunderstood and usually brings with it a handful of questions: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e-Does God want you to go into full-time ministry?
