Pastors

Reading through Eugene Peterson quotes will give your faith a shot in the arm. The author of the Message Bible and a handful of other books certainly knew how to communicate deep spiritual truths thoughtfully.

Pastors are people, too, and pastors who become persons have no need of masks. They can reveal their scars without fear of judgment or hostility.

Great leadership is about trust. If people don’t trust you, they won’t follow you – no matter how “right” your decisions.

"I am certain of Him, so I will be content with all those things I’m uncertain of.”
