Bible Note: strts When people leave a ministry many times the pastor takes it as a personal rejection. They shouldn't but it is often hard to get past the hurt. What you need to do is take this pastor to lunch, explain to him your dilemma telling him your certain your called to the other ministry. Then begin to complement and encourage him perhaps a small gift as a token of your appreciation for what he had sown into your life. Leave the door open should you ever felt lead to go back to his church. The longer you put this off the harder it will be to do and also the harder it will be for the pastor to understand. EdB |
