This Sunday at Church: Pray for your pastor if he is bi-vocational

Personally, I have been in 8 churches, and 5 of the lead pastors were bi-vocational. Most associate pastors I have known have been bo-vocational (including myself.) Thankfully, our current pastor is full-time, but all pastors need a lot of prayer.

Daniel

Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account, so that they can do this with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you. Pray for us; for we are convinced that we have a clear conscience, wanting to conduct ourselves honorably in everything.

For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for your pastor if he is bi-vocational.
