Quotes about Pastor

At the end of today's service, you'll have a chance to vote on whether I should remain as your pastor. Many of you are upset with me because I've chosen to defend a man of another faith who I believe is innocent. Many of you have already decided that he is guilty. But even if you want to assume that this man is guilty, does that mean I shouldn't represent him? Did Christ make you prove your innocence before he died for your sins?

You must not lose confidence in God because you lost confidence in your pastor. If our confidence in God had to depend upon our confidence in any human person, we would be on shifting sand.

My experience as a pastor is lots of people have really toxic, dangerous, psychologically devastating images of God in their head, images of a God who's not good.
