Happy Pastor Appreciation Day
OCTOBER 10, 2014
I would rather hang out with pastors more than anybody else in the whole world.
Just wanted you, as a pastor, to know that when they…
…throw rocks at you…
…unfairly criticize you and your family…
…leave because they are not “being fed”…
…refuse the raise…
…and think you should ask them before you go to the bathroom…
…and when you are discouraged, dancing on the edge of burnout, and thinking about going into vinyl repair…
…you have one cynical, old preacher (me) who understands, thinks you are something else and is your cheerleader.
Jesus too!
It’s hard sometimes, isn’t it? But it’s also the one place where we get a front row seat to watch an amazing God do amazing things.
Hang tough. When we get Home, we’ll share the war stories and have pity on those who don’t have any.
You go!
