A while back I found the articles linked below on pastors.com and they were exactly what I needed at the time. I have since shared them with many men and I offer them here, not as something I think you might need, but as something I NEEDED that you just might too.
I recommend you read and digest just one at a time and actually DO the recommended assignment provided in each PDF download.
Confessions of a Driven Pastor I (Download Part One)
It’s no longer safe to assume that people in ministry have healthy souls and just need a little coaching in the leadership area. – Pastor Lance Witt
Confessions of a Driven Pastor II (Download Part Two)
For years I intuitively knew that I was violating my soul. In honest and quiet moments, I longed to get off the treadmill but didn’t know how. – Pastor Lance Witt
I pray that you will find these artilces as convicting and as helpful to you as I did.
Yep, I can think of a few people who would benefit from those articles.
But I came here to say THANK YOU, for a comment you wrote months and months ago when I was thinking about closing down my children’s ministry blog. You made me think twice and I’m now very glad you did!
Thanks Karl. The articles were just what I needed.
Great articles to share!
hmmm???? I seem to remember someone passing this info onto me before – I was too busy being busy to stop long enough to read though – how convicting…. I’ll say no more
Karl – Thanks for the links, I’ll check it out. I’ve been feeling “not driven” for the last few months and still trying to find out why.
