Ministry can be difficult and discouraging, however, it doesn't mean you are being unfaithful. There are disappointments everyone faces in ministry, and in this episode, we discuss 7 of them.

Welcome to episode 271 of Practical Church Planting.

Here are the 7 disappointments we discuss in this episode:

• Embarrassment/shame when hardly anyone shows up
• People close to you will leave your church
• People will say there are interested and hardly, if ever, come
• Living with low level frustration from others
• Disappointment with yourself
• Financial ability
• Your church making a smaller difference than you thought
