My pastor is leaving our church.  He is leaving to be a coordinator for our brand of Baptists at the state level.  I think it seems like a great job–but I am crushed emotionally.  He is respected and loved.  I trust him completely with my questions and doubts.  For nearly ten years, he has been my pastor.

The process of going through changes can be trying on a church.  The fear of the unknown, the uncertainty of what the new pastor will be like.  I don’t know how to completely process this all.  Most of all, few people love change.
