No. Some can join in other's ministry. It's not necessary to start one...Have you heard the saying?
"Some were called, some were sent
and some....just got a microphone and went...."
I think a lot today are going out without being sent. Just my opinion...look around and join in where you are needed.

It is our duty as Christians to start a ministry. A ministry does not have to be going around and asking for money to go and preach to people in a far away land. It is as simple as living as Christ has commanded. That is the ministry we are called to live and also we need to proclaim Christ's name everywhere we go and in everything we do.

right this is the predicament-- Who has authorized you to start your guy or woman ministry? Is it guy or is it God? even if if that's God, then you won't might desire to ask, will you, because you have gotten the respond from God and our responses will have not have been given any magnitude. even if if that's of guy (including your self), then the question solutions itself. what's the purpose of tithing? To pay you to evangelise? Or what? you're relatively on your guy or woman with this one. bear in mind the widow's mite (interior the training of Jesus). it is the way any donations (even if if yours or from others) might desire to be taken care of. they are actually not there to feed your guy or woman face, yet for the artwork of the ministry. think of approximately it. i might have a job exterior the ministry, not settle for any pay from the ministry, and tithe for the purpose of assisting those in choose from my earnings. i would not enable those money pass to pay all of us's revenues. extra: No debate meant. besides the undeniable fact that it nonetheless seems such as you're calling your self to the "ministry". Having a private internet site is not any concern. i'm a author (I won't say which one) and use my internet site for promotional purposes. It has not something to do with faith and each little thing to getting the interest out. My works are works of fiction and any earnings comes from the revenues of those works (i'm additionally retired), that are tithed. The widow's mite (earnings from donations) is used to help help the ministry, which might contain the charges of the ministry. I have not have been given any issues seeing tithing money pass to that purpose. yet as to feeding different ministries? it is yet another matter, because of the fact how are those money getting used? i might quite have you ever use the money to help a soup kitchen or some thing comparable, quite than sell off them right into a black hollow the place you don't be attentive to how the money are getting used.

They are all kinds of ways to share the Gospel. Drive the Sunday School Bus; Or just picking up one person and bringing them; volunteering at a homeless shelter; mowing an elderly person's or widow's lawn for free.
Find a talent and use it for the Lord. :)

Yes. But what do you define as a ministry? It's not four walls and an office set-up. It's preaching. One person has one mouth.
Romans 10:10
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
