Welcome to the twenty-sixth episode of Equipping You in Grace. Each week I have conversations with Christian authors and thought leaders for the purpose of helping Christians develop a biblical worldview in a conversational tone about issues inside and outside the Church. Jason Garwood and Dave talk about how to care for your pastor.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- Care for your Pastor by making sure they have a pastor.
- Care for your Pastor by caring for your Pastor’s wife.
- Care for your Pastor by building relationships with your Pastor and his family.
- Care for your Pastor by encouraging him in practical ways to read the Bible and godly books for the purpose of his spiritual growth.
- How the congregation can care for the pastor’s wife.
- How to be befriend your pastor.
- How to help out your pastor.
- The need for pastors to have accountability.
