Why the Fivefold Ministry Matters Today

Published on: 8th September, 2025

The fivefold ministry is not about titles, positions, or superstar pastors—it’s Christ’s divine strategy to equip His people for Kingdom impact. In this episode, Glenn Bleakney dives into Ephesians 4 and reveals how the ascension gifts—apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher—flow directly from Jesus’ cosmic journey of descent, victory, and ascension.

You’ll learn why these gifts were never meant to be hoarded by a few but distributed to empower the entire Body of Christ. Discover how grace (charis), measure (metron), and gift (doria) work together to release supernatural empowerment, calibrated uniquely for every believer.

If you’ve ever wondered about your calling, questioned your significance, or longed to see the Church rise in fullness, this message will awaken you to the truth: you have been graced and gifted for a purpose—and the world is waiting for you to step into it.
