Listen "What God Looks for in a Pastor"
Episode Synopsis
How do you measure the success of a pastor? Is it by church size, sermon skill, popularity, or productivity? In this convicting message from 1 Corinthians 4, Adrian Rogers challenges worldly standards of ministry and points us back to God's standard: faithfulness. Using the powerful image of a "lower rower"—a slave at the bottom of an ancient ship—Dr. Rogers unpacks what it means to be a servant of Christ and a steward of the Word of God. He speaks to the heart of every minister who has felt the pressure to perform or the pain of comparison. This episode will encourage you to stay faithful, stay humble, and remember that the only applause that matters is from the One who called you.
