About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges pastors face in being themselves due to expectations and pressures, featuring Pastor Mike Elkins who manages to be just one of the guys.

All too often in our churches a pastor is put in a position where he can never be just oneof the guys. The pressures, responsibilities and expectations on a pastor make it so hecan’t let his hair down and be himself.On today’s program we will meet a special pastor that is able to do that within andoutside his church. But we will learn about the difficulty of many other pastors thataren’t able to do that. Most pastors might go years without being able to relax and trulyjust be one of the guys. The expectations on many pastors make it hard on not onlyhim, but on his family as well. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/136/29?v=20251111
