Saturday Briefing for Ministers and those who call them “Pastor”
In this video, I share a vital lesson I learned in an embarrassing way and give you three take aways.

Reflection question: Who am I here for? What if you were doing what you were doing for free? For the sheer love of it…or better yet for the sheer love of the people you are serving.
