No one is immune to it. Everyone who takes on a ministry or a task in the Church appreciates some kind of gratitude or recognition. But when positive reactions fail to materialise, the only true motivation becomes apparent.

Twenty years ago today, Chief Apostle Richard Fehr handed over the ministry to his successor. In a video interview later, Chief Apostle Wilhelm Leber revealed how this came about.

What it means to really trust in God and how this characterises a Christian life was described in a divine service by the Chief Apostle.
