When a pastor or ministry leader falls, it impacts the entire family and community. Walking through a tragedy like this is difficult for everyone. Today’s guest has walked this road firsthand as a daughter of a pastor who had a very public fall from their church ministry position. Lisa Whittle shares with us how her father’s actions and the reaction from the church community deeply impacted her faith and relationship with the local church.
Lisa is the best-selling author of 9 books and several Bible studies, including Jesus Over Everything and The Hard Good. She is a sought-out Bible teacher for her wit and bold, bottom-line approach. She is the founder of online communities: Ministry Strong for ministry leaders and Called Creatives for writers and speakers, and host of the popular Jesus Over Everything podcast. She’s a wife, mom, lover of laughter, good food, and The Bible.
As we broke
down a
few points
from Lisa’s article, How to Lose a Pastor in 10
Years, our
prayer is that through this conversation
we grow in
compassion and grace. Our prayer is that we think twice next time we
forward
an article or
respond to a text. May we be people that surround and support those
in need of grace because of the overwhelming amount of grace
our
Father
has given to
us.
