Obey Them that Rule???

[Coonskinner]

There have been times as a pastor when I have had to make decisions that were unpopular and disagreed with by some.

I could have cleared my position and taken the heat off myself if I had been at liberty to disclose things that the congregation did not know.

But part of the burden of leadership is doing the right thing even when it comes at personal cost.

I refuse to hurt people by revealing things, even when I have to be the bad guy in the minds of some of the uninformed.

So before you sit back and stick out your chest and pontificate about how ignorant your pastor's advice to someone or decision about something is, bear in mind that just might not know all the facts.
