PASTORS’ KIDS: HANDLING THE UPS AND DOWNS
10:00 am
On the 5th October 2023, the Pastors’ Academy will be hosting this Pastor’s Study day for Pastors and their wives on ‘handling the ups and downs of Pastors’ kids’.
It is a pastor’s deepest wish that his own children should follow him in loving the Lord Jesus Christ. It doesn’t always happen. And sometimes that rebellion can take an extreme form which is a searing wound to parents in ministry. Ways of handling this with hope will be explored positively in this study day. Do come along and learn.
