Not long ago, I was talking with a staff member of another church. In our conversation, he asked, “What can I, as a staff member, do to help bear the burden of my pastor?”

His question was a blessing to me, and I’m sure the heart behind his question is a blessing to his pastor.

In general terms, there’s a lot a person could say about how to be a blessing to the pastor. But as I considered his question, I realized there is one key way to help bear the pastor’s burden: help him do what he has been called to do—fulfill the Great Commission of Christ.

In this Growth Points video, I invite you to join a staff meeting at Lancaster Baptist Church as I share with you a challenge I recently gave our church staff on three ways to assist the pastor by honoring the Great Commission.
