TweetTruth: Your Pastor is weak. He’s flesh. He’s human, frail, and doesn’t always have it all together. He may be faithful to God and thereby filled with the Holy Spirit, but there’s always a secret side to him. He will probably never mention it in a sermon or a Deacon’s meeting. Chances are, he won’t [...]

Tweet My Dad is in a hospital 500 miles from where I am. I’d like to be in his room in a chair next to him talking politics or theology – two of our favorite subjects. Better yet, I’d like him to be comfortably at home or back at work. I’m sure he’ll be fine, [...]
