So do I hide from my cell phone? No!

And I am not in the business of my actions causing folks to lose their souls.

Pastors like many of the working saints in our demanding world.

Better give a good 40 hour week.

Then bring their A-game to the pulpit.

It is what our boss demands...

It is also what their boss demands....

My experience has always been most pastors give much of their time and heart....
According to scripture, a pastors first responsibility is to spouse and children. Same goes for other church leaders. Same goes for husbands and wives.

God comes first, family comes second, everything else - including ministry, comes next.

Do you put your job before your family?

Again, I'm talking about using common sense. There are exceptions, special needs, etc. on BOTH sides of the fence.
