The events of the past year have our attention. Global pandemic, economic crisis, and political upheaval have a way of focusing hearts and minds.
For pastors, the events of the past year have been exceedingly trying. The logistical challenges of leading the church in a pandemic have meant adoption of new technologies, challenges of pastoring a congregation that can’t congregate, and the concern for parishioners who have drifted away during the pandemic. In addition, many in our congregations have lost their jobs, and so the economic burden of supporting them, and the ministries of the church, is immense. And, in the midst of it all, the churning political tempest of American society has deeply impacted our congregations, creating deep challenges to our oneness in Christ.
