I found these really useful.
For some I thought of certain people, thinking, "Yeah, don't do that to me."
For others I thought, "Ooh, I almost hope they won't do that to me, but I need it."

I'm curious to know which ones would be difficult for a pastor - they all seemed like such good suggestions. The one I didn't see perhaps because we all know it, but deep down need to hear it is not to expect your Pastor to be any more holy than you - his kids, as well. He struggles with sin (and needs prayer in that area) just like the rest of us. Right?
