- Ed Silvoso
FOP night 3
There is a divine call to pulpit ministry
There is an equally divine call to marketplace ministry
2 dimensions: vertical & horizontal
Have to integrated both
Acts 2:45-47
Vertical – praising God
Horizontal – praise people
Acts 13
The Path to regional transformation lies in Acts 19 - Epheusus
Paul (pulpit minister) works with Priscilla & Aquila (marketplace ministers)
Acts 18:12-19
God reassured Paul that his work in the marketplace is good.
2. He set a business
3. The key role of extraordinary business
The journey takes 2 setbacks & 2 victories
Solely Religious ministry
Acts 13: Revival was shutdown by the authorities in Antioch
Acts 17: Thessaloncia: sent away @ night
Religion/Marketplace ministry
Acts 18: Corint: sent the judge away
Acts 19: Ephesus: Asiarchs are friends with Paul & they help to keep Paul in the place
The Asiarchs protected Paul as he was an asset to the city/ regions
Acts 20:33-35
How to be an asset to the marketplace?
1. Working hard
2. Helping the poor
3. Emulating Jesus
4. Giving rather than taking
