10 Stupid things Pastors Say…
Gotta tell ya, pastors say some of the stupidest things! Now, I am a BIG pastor fan (I am one), but… sometimes in the name of Jesus, church, God or love the craziest things pass over their vocal cords while bypassing the brain.
Now I recall some of those here for your notes, that meaning, if you are a pastor or not, in the name of Jesus, the church, God and for the sake of love, never say these…
1- I’m glad I don’t have any homosexuals coming to my church
2- It won’t really help or change anything, but you need to pray
3- I know my church will die when I leave, but that’s OK, we can plant another one
4- The church doesn’t have to be diverse in order to reach the city
5- I don’t make friends with any of our staff
6- I love to preach, I just don’t like people
7- I don’t want my church to grow, I’m satisfied with my salary
8- My kids hate our church…But I’m OK with that
9- I’m careful with who I let lead, I don’t want someone to take my job
10-I will never… ______________________ (The stupidest thing I ever said!)
Words are powerful, and they form culture and the future.Â
What was the stupidest thing you’ve heard a pastor say???

“I can’t be vulnerable with any of the members of my church. It’s too risky.”
“These people don’t understand sin. I will make this known to them by giving them a full list of specific sins.”
“I didn’t have time to prepare so the Spirit will have to do all the work today”
“I know it’s already 12pm but you don’t mind if I take a bit more time of your time do you?”
Do people really say this stuff?

Wow. I think I’ve only heard #6 before. I can’t believe pastors would say these things!
