Pastors

It takes humility to recognize that God’s grace and forgiveness are dependent on his goodness and not ours.

Even if your church is primarily filled with young people, from time to time you will be called upon by families to perform funerals.

When I sit back and read the deluge of thoughts and opinions online about what the church ought to be doing, I sense a noticeable lack of focus on the gospel.

People pleasing can be a real problem for pastors, and it can keep them and their churches from reaching their highest potential.

What helped my wife and I most avoid idolatry in marriage was that over the years, we came to say—and to really believe—that we were each other's second best friend.

Some false teachers aren’t just misinformed. Some are narcissistic and proud. Some are evil. Not everyone who has something to say about God is motivated by good. Their character is off. Their devotion to God is fake. Some have the appearance of godliness, but deny its power.

Use it or lose it, Christian. Don't let your spiritual senses atrophy. As a child of light, don't spend your life dwelling in the darkness.

Every pastor recognizes the necessity of local church participation and engagement.
