What I Love Most About Being a Pastor?
In 1992 I was called to ministry. I didn’t choose it as a profession. God spoke and I moved. I left a career, went to 
seminary, and have served in 4 churches as a pastor or associate pastor. I love being a pastor. Why?
I love being a pastor because…..
1. I know I’m doing what God has called me to do.
2. I get to help others come to Christ and disciple them.
3. I get to help people at times in life when no one else can (Death, Marriage, Trials, Benevolence).
4. I get to rub shoulders with great Christian leaders.
5. I get to keep my family grounded in the church (I’m there often).
6. I get to study the word of God for a living.
7. I get to take care of God’s house and campus.
8. I get to be a part, as a leader, of the greatest movement in history (The Great Commission).
9. I get to develop other Christians leaders formally and informally.
10. I get to see peoples’ lives change.

I’m so glad you love what you do. As one God has called to serve pastors in prayer I’m also interested in knowing what things you might include on a list titled “What I struggle with most about being a Pastor”
