Jer. 4:22 "....... They do not know how to do good." 

  In all ministries there are many things to learn. If one serves Christ working with the sick, or children with special needs, or the addict there are countless things to learn before jumping in and trying to help. I worked as a volunteer Chaplain in nursing homes for years and there is much to learn, and many mistakes to avoid. Even giving a cup of water to a resident can be a grave error if they are on a special diet. Moving someone in a wheelchair has protocol; and preaching, where many have dementia, requires a level of training.    I fear in many churches today there are to few mentors teaching new Christians how to do a 'good thing well', according to the revealed will of God, from a heart of love to God. 

   Sharing the Gospel, consoling the downcast, teaching Sunday School, restoring the one who's lost their faith, comforting the grieving and even giving money to the needy, as well as the countless other acts of faith and love, all require training.
