Hey Pastor, I know it’s your only day off this week, and you’re just trying to value one of your congregates by coming to this get together. I appreciate it. I know we said it’d start on time and its an hour after it was suppose to start. Thanks for being the only one that came early. I know you let us borrow all of your personal stuff for this party, do you mind helping us set it up too?
Hey Pastor, I know you don’t know the other people I invited to this get together, but they know you’re my pastor. So they’ve got an expectation on you and your family. So uh, would you mind making sure that you iniate conversation with every single one of them? Make sure they seem super comfortable, talk to them a lot about them, ask them a lot of questions, make them feel valued, and for sure make sure you remember their names.
Hey Pastor, I didn’t really like the way you just spoke to your kid, shouldn’t you show him more grace?
Hey Pastor, what your wife is wearing is making me feel a little uncomfortable. And what she just said under her breath makes me feel like she doesn’t really want to be here.
Hey Pastor, I know you want to talk about your church right now to me, and some of the hurts you’ve had, but I don’t really care to listen to your problems, I wish you’d just ask me about me… or I wish you’d stop talking.
Oh, Pastor, thanks for coming. I wish, well, I expected you were going to stay a little longer, engage a few more people, speak to your kids a little nicer, control your wife’s attitude and clothing, ask me more questions about me instead of talking about yourself so much, but I’ll be praying for your sermon prep on sunday! Blessings!
