Why I Share the Pulpit
I’ve been the teaching pastor at Sunrise since January of 2013. I believe for the first 7 years, I was preaching 50-51 Sundays a year. I loved it and still do, but truthfully, I don’t know if it’s best to keep that pace forever. This has been a conversation with our elders for a little while now, and we’ve settled on me aiming to preach 42-45 Sundays a year. I’m grateful to our leaders who are looking out for me. I’m also thankful for other men who are willing and able to preach. Here are some benefits to sharing the pulpit.
Sharing the pulpit also helps to communicate that the ministry of the local church isn’t all about one person.
Pastors, if you are able, I’d encourage you to look for opportunities to share the pulpit duties as you can.
