Pastor Secrets: 5 Things Your Pastor Wishes He Could Tell You

4. I so appreciate it when you cut my family some slack.

It’s fine for you to put me under a microscope. I get that. I got called into this and I’m accountable.

But this church is a place where my family is growing up. It’s a place where my kids are asking their own questions and where my wife comes on her good days and bad days.

When you treat them as people who are on their own faith journey and hold them up to no greater standards than you do any other family, you give my family an incredible gift.

We are pursuing Christ together, and when you give us grace, you actually make that journey richer. (Thank you, Connexus, for doing this so, so well.)
