Less than 15% of all pastors are under the age of 40 (Barna).
We’re like a ball team that doesn’t have a farm system of young people being developed.
As leaders, we must make calling out & discipling the next generation of ministry leaders a top priority!
#CallingOutTheCalled
With a shortage of Youth Pastors & College Pastors, if you have a good one, do everything you can to keep’em.
Here are 4 practical ways:
1. Value their family.
2. Treat them like a Pastor, not a babysitter.
3. Pay them like an adult, not a teen.
4. Protect them from the wolves.
Parents, one day our kids will also stand before Jesus, & He probably won’t ask them about their
grades,
batting averages,
3-point percentages,
yards per carry,
popularity,
hobbies,
or class rank.
How are we investing in their souls? The one thing that will matter for eternity!
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the 99
And I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve it, still You give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God #ifgathering2022
