Resources for Clergy
Welcome pastors! In this special section for clergy, you will find numerous articles relating to pastoral ministry. You will also find a collection of more than one hundred sermons. Most of these resources come from my previous website, “Getting Ready For Sunday.” As a result, some of the content will be dated. Only a few of these materials deal directly with faith struggles. However, as a retired minister, I want Doubter’s Parish to offer helpful resources for pastors.
From time to time, I’ll add additional sermons and articles to the clergy section of Doubter’s Parish. If you would like to receive email notifications about future sermons, articles, posts, stories, and books, please go to the contact page and sign up.
