Fear of the Lord-Pastor Dave Hoffman
Youth Pastor and Critic
Let me share one personal experience about how the area of
spiritual authority really hit home for me.
After I graduated from seminary I had a Masters of Divinity
degree and I knew I was ready to go! I had given up my secular
“career,” had exhausted all my funds, and was living at my
aunt’s house, waiting for God to use me. I told God, “Let’s go!
Your man of faith and power is ready!”
Well, it was like God forgot about me. But eventually, He did
lead me to be a youth pastor of a church.
The pastor of that church did most things totally different
than I would have. Now, please understand that my feelings had
nothing to do with his love for Jesus, or his commitment to the
Lord, or his wanting to see people grow in Christ and be saved.
It had to do with his methodology, how he dealt with the youth
and the congregation! Everything he did was absolutely the
opposite of how I would have done it.
