Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers argued with him, saying, “This man doesn’t know what he is talking about. What is he trying to say?” Others said, “He seems to be telling us about some other gods,” because Paul was telling them about Jesus and his rising from the dead. They got Paul and took him to a meeting of the Areopagus, where they said, “Please explain to us this new idea you have been teaching. The things you are saying are new to us, and we want to know what this teaching means.” (All the people of Athens and those from other countries who lived there always used their time to talk about the newest ideas.)

Organic ministry is beyond the walls of the church, not an official role, as you abide with Jesus. It's intentional more than additional.
We are placed here and now for a reason. According to Acts 17:26-27, God marked out our time and place in history so that we could point others to Him. Paul shows how we should interact with nonbelievers in order to make the most of our proximity to others and introduce people to Him.
