I wrote a little piece almost a year ago called, “What To Do When You Disagree With Your Pastor.” It still gets a lot of action, and people still find this site every day by typing things like,
“what to do when you don’t respect your pastor.”
The post was written from a privileged position, but I guess I had forgotten how privileged. I’m blessed to sit and work under a pastor who I know is a man of integrity, and one who hears from God.
Not everyone, I am reminded, is so fortunate.
After several heart-breaking stories in the comments on that post, I thought it needed a couple of follow-ups.
I still believe that that four “steps” laid out in that post will solve most issues, but clearly there are exceptions.
Disclaimer: As with “What To Do When You Disagree With Your Pastor,” I’m not in any way qualify to offer advice, except for my years on a church staff. I offer that, and this, advice, as an otherwise “normal” person who has seen behind the proverbial curtain.
