Small Church Problems

Pastors that do everything. Dealing with votes on red carpets, pews, light bulbs, etc. Trying to make the church as good as it was 20 years before us.

And where is this kid now? Featured on @FakeSermon clips? 😐

[Bad Church Secertary @ChruchSecretary]

This is a pretty traditional church.

The only changes that happen regularly around here are the pastors.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

Even worse when it’s your church leaders saying this to you. #anonymouscomplainersprotected

[Anon Church Guy @MrChurchGuy]

Former pastors make it sound like they were in prison.

"I got out of the ministry a few years ago. I was in for 15 years."

@AnneFrers Refusing to oversimplify sermons and give them what they want to hear. A week after, they had an elder preach on the simplicity of the Bible...

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

I’m sure what every pastor wants a month after being asked to leave, is a cute little picnic farewell! Clearly, this is about them and making themselves feel better.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

Came back from vacation and just found out the husband is preaching this Sunday and apparently there is a “farewell lunch” for us. How sweet of them...

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@ThePastorsWife5 Oh, we have experienced this so much. They just think we have to redo what we did when the church was in its “prime.”

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

Pastors truly aren’t paid enough.

[Jeff Weddle @FailingPastor]

I know a shocking amount about the bowel movements of old ladies.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@FailingPastor Had a youth pastor who did this AFTER the sermon on occasion. Not sure he listened enough to be aware of it though.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

They told us they wanted us to enjoy our planned vacation time. That’s why they let us go right before it. It’s SO enjoyable now. Thanks!

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@Miller_Simul Sorry. Hoping you find rest.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@WifeWorst Yes and I wish people blogged more. It’s a nice break from social media. Also wish people understood a PW’s perspective better.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@MamaLaiben Well, that’s a new one for me. 🤔

[Church Curmudgeon @ChrchCurmudgeon]

Will sell you our front row. Never been used.

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

Ironically they are also asking for patience as they figure it out. Just like you gave us, right?

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

We see the church is struggling how to figure out live stream without the pastor they let go this week... Welcome to our last 3 months?

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@janjowen It’s almost faster to just delete the whole thing!

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

Well, I only started using “these tongues” after becoming a pastor’s wife...

[Small Church Problems @smallchurchprob]

@WifeWorst Stop being f-ing lunatics might be the key to church growth...
