A powerful motivation, An Earnest Ministry -The Need of the Times by James, is a strong call, particularly to ministers, to be earnest in ministry. Will challenge you to hold firmly to your purpose and be resolute and consistent in action. Like a shot of spiritual adrenaline, he energizes you to pursue the lost and plead for their salvation, always emphasizing the Holy Spirit’s powerful work in salvation and sanctification, as earnest effort alone can be ineffective. His beautifully balanced theological convictions and practical piety in life and ministry are very appealing. Sheer spiritual vigor!
