Faithful Service. This item is unavailable.Faithful Service

Have you ever felt like quitting? Ever asked yourself, “Why am I doing this? Is this even worth anything?” Even those who are faithful and have learned their lessons can still sometimes come to the end of the road. We can wonder what those faithful years of service were all about. Who were they for? What was the point? We can lose sight of the big picture in the midst of our faithful service. It isn’t hard to do. The writer to theHebrews reminds us in chapter 6 verse 10 that even if we lose sight, God never will. He writes: “For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” This little book has been written to help those serving behind the scenes to find strength, hope and wisdom to carry on in the ministries that God has given them. Drawing principles from the Bible and examples from many years of service, the author hopes to encourage and support those who so often work for the Lord behind the scenes where no one usually notices.
