pastors

In 1 Timothy chapter 4, Paul talks to the young pastor about teachings that erode the joy of the gospel, steal from the Church and make the truth that the Church teaches look needlessly foolish. "Godless myths and old wives' tales" that are to be avoided. We should instead train ourselves to be godly. How many times has the Church been dragged into debates about good things that should be outlawed, when everything God has made is good?

Somebody has to stop the nonsense, and in doing so, we can save both ourselves and our hearers.

Perhaps we don't get excited enough about "missing sheep." When someone in our congregation drops off the radar, we should go after them, with fear for their lives

Keep Dan in your prayers. He had surgery on his foot on Wednesday the 11th (of July, 2007), and is now home recooperating. He does have a bone infection, which requires watching. Please left Dan up to the Lord.
