Re-defining Pastoral Work

"A busy pastor often feels torn between the needs of his family and the needs of the church. If you think about, there is never competition between the callings of family life and the callings of gospel ministry. You are serving the church when you are serving your family. Any investment at home pays huge dividends for the church. You are modeling how the graces of the gospel effect family living for the people you serve."

Dear Timothy: Letters on Pastoral Ministry, page 54.
