What would you do?

[ChurchLeaders.com @ChurchLead]

A pastor asked his own Facebook followers what pastors do wrong. The replies came fast, and some cut deep enough that people started asking the opposite question: how do church members fail their pastors?
Ten answers came back. See which ones might be true in your own church.

This yep. 🤣🤣

[REPLENISH @RPLNISH]

A great take on a rough problem.

[ChurchLeaders.com @ChurchLead]

Culture, not calling, is often what pushes a pastor out the door, built by small compromises leadership tolerates for years. The good news: healthy churches do exist, and recovery starts with one honest conversation. https://t.co/6W7DLEtjmb

Yes!!! Amen!

Houston Texans Star, Will Anderson Jr, signed a $150 million contract and the first thing he did was to pray out loud in the press conference giving glory to JESUS CHRIST 🙏🏾

Is this real?

We’ve officially reached the point where you can get tacos, an oil change, your windshield replaced, and baptized in the same parking lot.

Spotted a mobile baptismal today and I have questions. Does it come with a pastor? Is it rented by churches? How does the water situation work? Are there baptismal technicians? I need Answers 😁

Good stuff

A church can grow in attendance and still be led badly. This nationally known Christian leader lists the five habits he's seen quietly hold pastors back from ever becoming great leaders, even when everything looks fine on paper. https://t.co/Rn51oMhYgw

Pay attention

Burned out?
Elijah burned out.
God’s first response?
Sleep.
1 Kings 19 shows a surprising recovery plan:
sleep → food → sleep again → clarity.
Neuroscience confirms this.
Sleep restores emotional balance & decision-making.
Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is rest.

I’ve shared this before, but it’s worth sharing again.

A brief word to seminary students/aspiring pastors:

92% of all churches in the US have an average weekly worship attendance of below 250.

68% of them have an average of below 100.

31% are below 50.

Facts: the likelihood of you pastoring a large church of 250+ is extremely slim.

This means you must adjust your expectations immediately and do all you can now to learn how to pastor small to mid-size churches, many of which are in dire need of revitalization.

This may not be the world of pastoral ministry you want to live in, but rest assured that it is indeed the world you live in.

Invest now in developing a love for God’s Word, an intimate care for God’s people, a passion to lead in evangelism and discipleship, and an others-focused mentality that is prepared to serve in hard ways. All while most likely serving as the only full-time staff person in the church, or even co-vocationally.

The task will be hard. But with your Chief Shepherd, it will not be impossible. And the reward will be great. Prepare accordingly.

“And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory” (1 Peter 5:4).
