Joel and I have plans in the works to talk about the bi-voc pastor. We accept your challenge. One of the big problems we've seen is that typically a bi-voc pastor is shepherding a smaller church... one where he is expected to do everything. It's a catch-22... more responsibilities with fewer hours to attend to them. What would you say is the realm where YOUR biggest challenges reside? People-problems? Logistics? Urgencies? Impossible deadlines? We'd love to hear from you some more. Can't get 36 hours into a 24 hour day, but we can work to create solid guidelines that can help... Thanks for posting. Ted and WR,

Can’t get 36 hours into a 24 hour day, but we can work to create solid guidelines that can help…

Thanks for posting.

I only have a 1-1.5 hour/day commute, but prayer, MP3 sermons, and Jott usually fill that time.

I would love to see a session on time management for bivocational pastors. I work a 40 hour a week job (not including the 3 hours daily commute time) and pastor a church.

I really think this ministry is going to be a real help to many pastors. I think I must be one of those busy, on the verge of burned out pastors you are talking about. Thanks guys. Great job guys.
