Pastors are Disciples Too
Read: Luke 6:39-40
As a pastor it is so important to lead the people of God. However, I
cannot lead as a teacher or a shepherd without knowing the teachings
of the Teacher, or how to shepherd like the Great Shepherd of our
souls. Pastors are just like a regular disciple. We have to pray,
read our Bible, tithe, serve, fast, and many other things, not always
in that order.
How can I lead disciples without being a disciple? I don’t think I
can. Like many of you, pastors participate in Lent. We want to grow
and be a part of following Christ. There is always a caution to be a
leader found in James 3:1a “for you know that we who teach will be
judged with greater strictness.” Remember to pray for your pastor
this Lenten season!
Pastor Keith Lenard, Jr.
