Church Leaders Lead Churches…Really

August 19th, 2004

Hugh Hewitt’s In, But Not Of is a great book for young people, high school and older. I found one section particularly helpful. It dealt with being a pastor or church leader. Hewitt called on us to stay out of speaking on political issues in our church role. I, for one, probably read as much as anyone on current events and the situations we face as Americans at this time. I think Hewitt is absolutely right. No matter how eminently qualified we think we are, we aren’t. Not really. We have such a dangerous job fallout of thinking we know everything about everthing. It’s hard enough speaking on practical matters of faith filtered through God’s Word, let alone trying to speak about issues of state. Issues of which we have so little real information available to us. Issues on which we have no promise of the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
