What Your Pastor Wishes You Knew About Him
Dan Burrell, a former pastor, offers what he calls “some things that I’m guessing your pastor wishes you knew about him” (part 1 | part 2).
He lists ten main points:
- Bible college and seminary weren’t enough.
- Good sermon preparation takes time.
- His family is important too.
- Be kind if you have a criticism.
- Give your pastor time to grow.
- Your pastor probably views you differently than you view him.
- Pastors sometimes find it difficult to have friendships.
- Your pastor may well be different out of the pulpit than when he’s in the pulpit and that doesn’t necessarily make him a hypocrite.
- Your pastor has bills too.
- Your pastor loves the work of the ministry.
