Pray for your pastor tonight. He will preach a sermon in the next 12 hours he has poured over all week and wants to serve his people with it. And he is trying to go to sleep now.

Pastors, don’t resign. It’s just Monday. Instead…. ✅ drink some good coffee. ✅ pray honestly. ✅ sit still and in silence. ✅ lift something heavy. ✅ grieve your losses. ✅ talk to a safe friend. Save the rest for tomorrow.

Meet Pastor Paco from Mexico. He has been a part of our @practicalsheph cohorts for 4 years. But I had never met him in person until this weekend while in Mexico. Great to see him and meet his pastoral trainees. And he brought me coffee “for Mondays” as he put it. 😊

This is where we part ways. At the airport in Veracruz, Mexico as we head home from a very fruitful @practicalsheph ministry trip. Thankful for Hector and his leadership with @pracshephesp and his friendship with me. And grateful for our partnership with @endosnetwork.

We had an amazing pastor’s conference today in Xalapa, Veracruz in Mexico. Some pastors drove 12-15 hours to attend. A very encouraging time! Thanks for praying. @practicalsheph @pracshephesp

Made a quick stop on the way to Chattanooga to see my friend Bob Bickford and get a tour of his office as the AMS of the Nashville Baptist Association. I know of no one better to lead this organization in this season than Bob.

I always counted it a great joy and privilege to preach at Redeemer Fellowship Church, where my dear friend @spandlerdavison planted 20 years ago and continues to be the lead pastor here. What a sweet church where God is indeed working who always love and welcome me well.
