Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord

When you seriously disagree with the leadership of the
church you really only have one option: go to that leader and
lovingly share your concerns. Your pastor can tell in a
millisecond if you are coming from a critical spirit and a critical
heart. A true, humble spirit will say, “Pastor, this is how I feel.
I am going to share this with you and then it is your problem.”
If you have a concern, go to the church leadership, share your
concern with them, pray with them, then walk out the door and
wash your hands of the situation, continuing to do what God
wants you to do.
Submit to the decisions of leadership in the church for the
good of the body. Support the leadership. Too many times in the
Body of Christ people take offense, when their views aren’t acted
upon. And because they aren’t submitted to authority they begin
to speak against leadership. Remember, the Bible says, “Out of
the mouth speaks that which fills the heart,” and too often what
fills the heart is rebellion against God’s authority.
