The Joy and Reward of Serving Christ (Rom. 15:14–33)

Paul’s love for the church and ambition to preach the gospel provide an example for ministers today. In this episode of You’re Not Crazy, Sam Allberry and Ray Ortlund offer encouragement for pastors to persevere in ministry, receiving their calling as a gift from the Lord. They look to the final reward of ministry — not the success of the minister but that the Lamb would receive the reward of his sufferings. And they conclude their discussion of Romans 12–15 by reflecting on how our receipt of the gospel transforms our relationships and ministries.
