In this third episode with Spencer Robinette, Raz and Jamie explore what it means to be a minister with Jesus—not just inside the walls of a church, but out in the world where most people live and work. Ministry isn’t just for vocational pastors—it’s for every follower of Jesus, wherever they are.
Rooted in Ephesians 4:11–12
, the conversation highlights God’s design for church leaders to equip the saints for the work of ministry. That means pastors aren’t called to do all the ministry for people, but to train and release God’s people to live as ministers in their workplaces, families, and communities.
Spencer shares stories from his time as a barista—where his pastor’s heart came alive behind a coffee bar—and how he continues to live out his ministry calling now as a sales rep at Windows Plus
.
He shares 3 core values for doing marketplace ministry:
- Work as Worship – Everything we do is an offering to God.
- Work as Service – Serving people matters more than closing a deal.
- Work with Integrity – Honoring people with honesty, not manipulation.
The guys also talk about how to practically bring Jesus into your everyday work life—like praying before meetings, listening for the Spirit’s guidance, and remembering what Jesus said: “My Father is always at work
.” That means your work matters, and you never do it alone. In fact, the Father has already prepared good works for you to walk in today (Ephesians 2:10
). He’s intentional, and He invites you to partner with Him—right where you are.
