I’ve been a pastor for 24 years and the sabbatical leaves I’ve taken have been wonderful. The last one in 2011 was a swap with another pastor. It was such a positive experience for both of our families and for both congregations, that I started a website to help facilitate such exchanges. You can check it out at http://www.PastorSwap.org. Thanks for your ministry!

I agree with the statemen: “If you’re insecure, assets are perceived as threats.” I have experienced that on a personal level within a couple of different jobs. Because of my high work standards and ethics, I’ve had bosses that perceived I was trying to “take their jobs”. When the fact of the matter is usually that, yes, I want your job, but I want to push you on to your bosses job. My goal is never to succeed at the expense of another person.

It’s difficult to be in that situation, because I can’t succeed in the job when the boss is threatened by me. At that point, it’s time to just take my ball and go home.
