Today at church was interesting. It's been amazing to see people express how much they care about Jamie and I now that we're leaving. It's not that I expect people to show that level of appreciation all the time but...what if they did? What if people in churches really showed their pastor how much they appreciate and care about them all the time like they do when their pastor decides to leave?
Just a thought...though, it seems as if that might help keep pastors around longer. As a pastor, I can testify that the people who speak the loudest and let you know how they feel the most often are the ones who are always upset about something or disagree with how you did this or that...it would be nice if the ones who appreciated you spoke louder....like I said, just a thought.
