Marriage & ministry are both full-time jobs, and it can be easy for pastors to get lost in the balance. Join host Dave Stone as he sits down with Jud & Lori Wilhite to talk about integrating your marriage and family with your ministry.
“Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me?” This repeated theme of Psalm 42 is the common struggle of many faithful pastors. The constant pressure of weekly sermon preparation, tight budgets, and lack of church growth is tiresome. And these are the easy problems. Overseeing church discipline cases, never living up to a congregation’s expectations and preparing the saints for death are beyond tiring; it can be brutal. The sum of it all beats a pastor down.
Shame controls far too many of us, and the Bible addresses the issue of shame from start to finish. Shame Interrupted reminds readers that God cares for the shamed, and that through Jesus, they are covered, adopted, cleansed, and healed.
