A Pastor’s Philosophy

Every person has a philosophy for their life. Even if it is not penned on parchment, it is written upon the table of the heart! If there is any person who needs to contemplate their philosophy for life, then it is the pastor. He is the one person who must be careful to follow the right path for many are walking in his footsteps. A few years ago, I penned the following philosophy for Godly leadership. May it help all who call themselves pastors to think about their role in this walk of life.

The Godly philosophy of leadership is as follows: 

#1 – Prayerfully discover the will of God for your life!

#2 – Give yourself to that plan from a servant’s heart! 

#3 – Mature and develop into a passionate instrument for God to use!

#3 – Determine to finish the journey even though there may be a cross to bear!

#4 – Look to God as Sovereign and trust Him with the results, rewards, and recognition for your labors!
