قال لي قس مسن ذات مرة: "إذا كنت تحب شعبك، فسوف يسامحونك على الكثير من العظات السيئة". كانت هذه من أسوأ النصائح التي تلقيتها على الإطلاق. لن يمر الجميع بأزمة خلال فترة خدمتك؛ ومع ذلك، سيسمعك الجميع وأنت تعظ - ويتوقعون أن يتغذوا روحيًا.نقرأ في الكتاب المقدس: "وَلكِنْ بِدُونِ إِيمَانٍ لاَ يُمْكِنُ إِرْضَاؤُهُ، لأَنَّهُ يَجِبُ أَنَّ الَّذِي يَأْتِي إِلَى اللهِ يُؤْمِنُ بِأَنَّهُ مَوْجُودٌ، وَأَنَّهُ ي...  Read More
