Bible Question: Should Christians be serving or engaged in one/single ministry/service at church regardless of your gifts, willingness or problem of lacking manpower at church?

The reason I ask the question is that my Chinese Bible contains the word "concentrate/single-minded/solely" in the verse; thus attributing both quantity- and quality-wise.

Hope I have clearly expressed my question :-)

Bible Answer: Dear Azure,

I don't see anything in the scriptures that would prohibit someone from engaging in more then one ministry. If the person is willing, and has the gift, then I can see that there is no reason that he or she should not be allowed to serve in more then one ministry, as long as it is an appropriate ministry for that persons station. I know of many that serve in more then one capacity; especially if the talent pool is limited by the size of the congregation, though I don't believe this consideration of convention would necessarily be limited because of the size; whether it be large or small.

I hope that helps, sister, Azure.
