Beginning in a new church takes allot of time and energy. We’ve been remodeling our little cabin out back of the church and we have everything ready for the carpet and next week the new roof should be started.

Its been a pleasure being apart of our new church the past few months. We seem to fit like a glove, their already learning to pick on us.

Thats always a sure fire way of knowing that their beginning to care and accept us as their friends.

Pastoring should be a relationship with his congregation, not a dictatorship,  or him being the boss or the one who makes all the decisions.

A pastor and his wife ought to be friends with the congregation as well as the shepard.

Theres too many in the ministry that treat the church as their own personal business, or their own bank account.

They expect the congregation to believe exactly as he & his wife do and if they don’t then their not very spiritual.

God really isn’t interested in having churches full of spiritual giants, how do I know that?  Because no where in scripture does he say that everyone should be.

Instead what I find is him telling us to become mature and humble servants.

Thats what we’re missing today, Christians (including pastors) who will admit their sinners and struggle with sin, but who are thankful for Gods grace and his forgiveness.

We have so many today who act as though they never sin or have a bad thought and everything they do is perfect, their children and their spouse walk on water.

Give me a break.

The only one who ever walked on this earth without sin,  was Christ

What we need in the church is more servants,  theres allot of work to be done, and very few servants willing to work.

Thank God for his grace, we are a people who need it, because we all fail so often
