5. Recognize the influence of a supportive family as a significant impact in the success of ministry, even though members of the family are not responsible for ministry.

A personal involvement in soul winning will model a passion for people, not because of being paid for a job, but out of love for Christ.

2. Involve members in spiritual gifts identification, equipping, training, organizing, and discipling, including an on-going program of personal Bible studies.
3. Provide some form of “sowing/reaping/discipling” cycle, which gives people the opportunity to accept Christ and join the Seventh-day Adventist Church, carried out perpetually in each church. The duration of the cycle is decided by the pastor and the local church.
4. Track Sabbath morning attendance giving special emphasis to keeping in touch with people rather than just numbers, watching the trends and understanding the reasons for significant changes.

Professional Ethics
1. Live in harmony with the fundamental beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
2. Be faithful in returning tithe. NAD Working Policy states: “Because of its importance as a principle and the spiritual experience it represents, tithing, like other basic beliefs and practices of the church, becomes a condition of employment for all credentialed/licensed employees.” -D 55 05

4. Be honest and fair in all business relationships.

6. Attend the ministerial meetings called by Conference leadership.
7. Give full energy to the ministry. NAD Working Policy states: “Conference and institutional employees shall refrain from any side lines, or activity, either denominational or extra-denominational, which has the effect of diminishing their influence and/or infringing on the time and efficiency of the work to which they are assigned. –Y 06 06更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
