Bivocational Ministry
Pastoral Leadership

“As a bivocational pastor, one of the most hurtful comments I’ve heard over the years is this: ‘Oh, you’re just a part-time pastor?’ ….In reality, there is no such thing as part-time ministry.” - F&T

Man, come on. Who cares what the nattering nabobs of negativism say? Its just ignorance on display. The fact is, many people think any pastor is “part-time” — “You only work on Sunday, right?”

If this is the worst a guy has to deal with, he’s got it pretty good.

Maranatha!
