Book Description<\/h2>\n

There are two intended audiences for discourses on the Christian ministry: the pastor or elder who cares for the church, and his congregation who are called to willing and prayerful submission. In Gospel Ministry, <\/em>a collection of nine sermons delivered in his fruitful later years, John Owen addresses both.<\/p>\n

Whether expounding the role of the Holy Spirit in shaping the ministry, presenting the purposes of the church, savoring God\u2019s care of his people, or warning against being ashamed of the gospel, Owen\u2019s teaching is invaluable for any minister \u2013 or member \u2013 of the body of Christ.<\/p>\n

This book is complemented by its companion volume, Gospel Life<\/em><\/a>, which beautifully sets forth the foundational steps of faith in Christ, assurance, and humble walking with him.<\/p>\n

The sermons in this volume have been selected from The Works of John Owen, Volume 9<\/em><\/a> and modernized for today\u2019s readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
