    Part-time Pastor issue....doing the bare minimum?

    Introversion is not a reason to be unfriendly. I am an introvert of which there are four types. Yes, we like our space but we, who are followers of God, care about people. We can also be quite talkative at times due to our passion for the Lord.

    Part-time Pastor issue....doing the bare minimum?

    I thought churches had elders for this type of thing. I think he needs a mentor (another pastor) to help him. It would be unkind to tell him he is not a good pastor. You clearly are unhappy with him. It may be time to find another church. From what you state, the pastor is lacking a deep...

    what to do

    Sometimes it is time to find a church where you really like your pastor and other leaders of the church. God may have a purpose for you somewhere else. Take your gifts and put them where they are appreciated and you get the support you need. God bless!

    From what you have stated, it seems you are abandoning God. John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one come to the Father except through me." Receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior and believe he is the Son of God. Then, get to know God. Build a relationship with Him. You are...
