"If you view your pastoral role as a job -- where you get to exercise your leadership gifts, sprinkled with preaching, and a good salary ... without a daily awareness of God's presence -- get out. Your church deserves better than that."
That last paragraph is so powerful, Rob. Isn't it is the way of his Kingdom, the upside down way our God redeems and renews through our failings? God's power is made perfect in our weakness,so let me be weak and remember who God is and who I am in him!
