Over the years I tried to put out more posts resolving Bible contradictions concerning the final week of Christ through His Ascension to add to the list of answered contradictions. It takes some time on my part to go through them to provide exegetically sound refutations; Lord willing I will add more to this lists […]

I know of several chur he’s going through this process. I am talking with one about coming on part-time as their pastor (on my way to preach there as of this posting.) I do believe that it is okay for the majority of a church’s budget being for paying the pastor, and I have for over two and a half decades.
Let us lift up Jimmy’s church and all churches facing this decision.

We have a few people who can cover the music in an emergency, and we have easy access to a couple other people who can usually step in. It is nice, especially with our music pastor out of town the next two Sundays. It usually makes for a nice change of pace. One time, all our usual people were traveling together! The man who filled in played songs we normally avoid, and it could be felt. I am also thankful for a gracious congregation who was kind, but that person was removed from any list of possible cover. Let us always be grateful for others who can help lead our worship services.

This was something discussed in our recent Congregational Meeting, how we can encourage members to be more attentive and thus welcoming to newer people and visitors. I know I often get stuck in conversations and cannot always meet new people right away, so it is helpful to have many people be ready to be welcoming to all including those who come back again!

I could step in if necessary, but we have a couple young men who are being trained in case something happens to our main A/V guy. It is a mildly stressful thing to consider, so it is a blessing to have a few people who are ready and able to step in.

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.
