Introduction
Next semester, I will be leaving Regent University to obey God 's call to enter the field of ministry. Primarily I will minister through film and personal interactions with unsaved people. To achieve this, I must have set philosophy of ministry that helps guide me in the next stage of my life. This paper, then, discusses seven key components of my philosophy of ministry and how they will influence how I minister. First, this paper discusses who God is.
