Being a Pastor is a big deal! It is supposed to be. Because it is, the devil takes great pleasure in trying to minimize our effectiveness. And he does a great deal of that work inside our own mind and spirit. The purpose of this book is to share some of our experiences in hopes that some of the problems we faced can help others in similar situations to know that they are not "the only ones". We also hope that church members may gain some insights into their pastor and the struggles he or she faces. The picture we hope we paint for you is that you are not the problem. The people of your church are not the problem. But the devil wants to use the people of your church to make you think you're the problem, so he can thwart whatever good God is doing through you. And God is using you. You are doing some good. You are making a difference. You are a real pastor. We hope and pray that you receive a blessing from the Lord through this work. Be on the lookout for our next book.
MICHAEL KELLY, A MAN WITH A LIFE AS WRECKED AS THE LUXURY CAR HE’D JUST RUN OFF A WINDING MOUNTAIN ROAD, THEN WALKED AWAY FROM.“Want is a cherishing of control.” the old mountain preacher told him, “Recognizing need is being willing to release that control.” And so Michael Kelly’s journey begins. Michael Kelly had sought to gain the whole world and thought he’d succeeded, till the weight of his own arrogance and conceit collapsed that world around him andleft him to struggle through the rubble that remained; grim and frustrated memories of what was, emotionally, material, professionally.From that small mountain church, through a series of encounters more and more evidently directed by the hand of GOD, Michael finds that to rebuild his life, he must walk a path by new found faith rather than by his old ways, a path leading through the intent and schemes of men just as arrogant and self-conceited as his own had once been.“For what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world, and to lose his own soul?”
