An Example of Workplace Ministry

How do you picture Paul and Timothy sharing the gospel? The bible records the following account of Paul and Timothy’s work as tentmakers:

For you remember, brethren, our labor and toil; for laboring night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God. 1 Thessalonians 2:9 (NKJV)

Paul and Timothy exemplified workplace ministry. They didn’t relegate the gospel to a religious meeting place. They shared the good news of Jesus Christ even while involved in backbreaking manual labor.

  1. Good to hear another voice in support of ministry in the workplace. My website, www.calledintowork.com, contains several articles and links to many resources.
