Ministry in Many Lands: Teaching and Preaching Across the World

Story★★★

A man was asked, “What did you do yesterday?” He replied, “Yesterday I taught a class in the Criswell College. On Tuesday I was down in the Rio Grande Valley working in Vacation Bible School. On Wednesday I was operating in our Baptist hospital in Nigeria. On Thursday I was teaching the Word of God in the Amazon jungle. On Friday I was building a church house in the Philippines. On Saturday I was preaching on the streets in the Japanese capital of Tokyo.”

The point

A man lists his multiple ministry activities happening simultaneously across different continents, suggesting the scope or busyness of gospel work.
