God’s faithfulness and goodness are abundant in the call of ministry. 

This whole year on the Pastor’s table has been inviting those in ministry to embrace the fullness of the call. Vanity metrics and comparison traps have robbed so many pastors the joy and blessings of ministry. 

This year has been such a blessing getting to be with you on this journey!  Thank you for joining us at the table!  

Discussion Questions: 

  • Vanity Metrics and the Joy of Ministry:
  • How have vanity metrics and comparison traps affected your perspective on ministry, and what steps can pastors take to rediscover the joy and blessings inherent in their calling?
  • Theoretical vs. Existential Challenges:

  • The Role of Theology in Identity and Decision-Making:
  • How has your theological framework shaped your identity as a pastor, and in what ways has it influenced significant decisions in your pastoral leadership journey?
