Curated links for your weekend reading:

[Being a Pastor Isn’t ‘Just a Job’](https://go.dashho.us/C4A?ref=dashhouse.com)

> If you’re one of those who thinks pastors whine too much and work too little, I want to share with you some reasons you may not have considered that pastoral work really is *different*.

[When Your Sermon Feels Like Trash](https://go.dashho.us/C45?ref=dashhouse.com)

> My sermon is not about me. It’s not about the effectiveness of my sound or my appearance. It is about God’s word being faithfully preached.

[The Enduring Witness of a Normal Life](https://go.dashho.us/C4L?ref=dashhouse.com)

My [column](https://go.dashho.us/r9A?ref=dashhouse.com) this week at The Gospel Coalition Canada: [The Danger of Falling Away](https://go.dashho.us/CbY?ref=dashhouse.com)

> Falling away doesn’t seem to take much effort. It happens automatically. Staying faithful is much harder: we must stay on guard, taken continual, deliberate action, hold on for our lives to God and his gospel, and get help from others.
