Within the pages of Pastor G. Thomas Dowie’s book, The Spirit of the Ministry ($21.49, paperback, 9781498459051; $9.99, e-book, 9781498459068), readers will find a fascinating piece that pulls together the principles of ministry, leadership, and succession. The author provides insights on why some ministries succeed and others fail, and also challenges readers to think about what defines “success” in ministry.

 

 “Ministry is a divine ‘ecosystem’ that encompasses the personality traits of individuals, the circumstances that give rise to their call and the nature of the call itself, and synthesizes these various elements into a configuration that makes it unique,” said Dowie.

 

In this book, Pastor Dowie skillfully explains ministry is a synergy of a divine call, personal factors, and circumstantial realities. Also important are leadership abilities, which is also woven into the ministry tapestry. In the end, success is determined by whether or not the ministry can last through generations.
