Pastor Appreciation Month

You can tell it's here when John starts to get cards and gifts left on the kitchen table.  The folks in this church used to slip him money in their handshake after church when he first started preaching here in 1982, and they have never stopped giving.
We just received a very fat envelope the other Sunday, and this during a recession!
You can't outgive God and you can't outgive JBC either.
We feel honored by this congregation.  The way of the world is to look for our own advancement, but the way of the Kingdom is to build a culture of honor.

Romans 12:10
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.
