PoopedPastors.com

I’ve been meaning to tell you something…something you probably already know.

In fact, God told me you would receive three free sins if you helped me out and, not only that, you would have a grateful pastor.

(No, it isn’t indulgences. I can’t really give you free sins!)

Okay, I want to make sure you know about PoopedPastors.com.

I have a major concern for pastors. It’s a concern not dissimilar to a former drunk having a concern for someone not yet set free from booze. Okay…uh…not a great analogy.

Let’s say it’s a concern of someone who has a lot of wounds reaching out to someone who is still in the battle.

We get hundreds of emails, letters and phone calls from pastors, and those come immediately to my desk. That means I spend a considerable portion of my time talking, praying, crying and laughing with pastors.

After a lot of discussion, we decided to create a “soft place” for pastors. That soft place is PoopedPastors.com and your pastor needs to know about it. It’s a great website with piles of content to help make what is a very hard job, doable. There are thousands of pastors at the website who have been there, done that and have a pile of T-shirts. I do a weekly video and often write a blog. We have a pastor’s psychologist, a health and fitness guy, a special place for youth pastors, and a variety of others who can come alongside your pastor to help him get through the day.

And then there are forums (no, you can’t go on them) for pastors to share anonymously whatever is on their hearts and to have a pile of pastors again come alongside and help out.

There is a lot more, but I wanted you to know so you could tell your pastor.

Okay, maybe you won’t get free sins and maybe your pastor won’t rise up and call you blessed.

But it still would be a good thing if you told your pastor.

Especially after all that Jesus has done for you! : )

(Oh, if you are a pastor and haven’t yet visited the website, do it now! It might keep you from becoming a Buddhist.)
