Free Resources For Pastors And Congregations

Here are three resources which we enjoy, and wish to share with you.
The first is “Sermon Search,” which is a great resource for Pastors.
As their heading states, they offer “Sermons, Outlines, Illustrations, & Preaching Ideas.” There is some really great content here. We get email updates from them, and we also “look around” the site often.
We think you’ll find it a great resource.
They also feature a “Pastor’s Corner.”

Here’s a direct link:
SERMON SEARCH

Next, here is are 2 links to “9Marks” Ministry.

The first is a direct link to “Answers For Pastors,”
where you’ll find “Common questions from pastors arranged topically.”

Here’s the Direct Link:
ANSWERS FOR PASTORS

9Marks also features a section of their website called “Answers for Church Members,” which feature “Common questions from church members arranged topically.”
Here’s the Direct Link:
ANSWERS FOR CHURCH MEMBERS

Enjoy!

Guest Post: “Pastors: Recharge Your Batteries!”

“I suggest that if the leader is not adequately concerned for his/her own family and well-being, s/he will not last long enough in life to be able to last long in ministry. “

Pastors: Recharge Your Batteries!.

This is a very thought-provoking article, and certainly gives us all reason to think about how we view our Pastor’s humanity and service … and the costs to be counted … by all parties.

Guest Post: : “Why read the Bible?”

“I am convinced that what the body of Christ needs to do is stop looking to pastor so and so to speak a word to them, but look to the Bible to see what God’s already said to them.”

via why read the Bible–day 25 of 32–God’s Guidance.

This is a really good word … I just finished reading Psalms and Proverbs … Hope you enjoy this one!
