Ultimately, the origin of any ministry begins with an idea, a picture, a vision from God given to a person or people. When a person is sufficiently moved by God to approach his/her church about the possibility of bringing this vision to reality, it will be considered an idea. This idea can take an infinite variety of forms. (e.g. a youth ministry that starts a weekly service, a recovery ministry, a drop in centre, any age-specific ministry, a small group that multiplies, etc.)
