Understanding the Motivation of Christian Service
In this episode of the Middletown Baptist Church podcast, Pastor Josh discusses the importance of motivation in Christian service. Drawing from Paul's teachings to the church at Corinth, he emphasizes the need for believers to be driven by the love of Christ rather than external appearances or personal ambitions. Pastor Josh explores the significance of remaining faithful and motivated in gospel work, despite challenges and discouragement. He also highlights the biblical concept of being judged not just for our actions but for the motivations behind them. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to re-align their motivations with the love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
