Pastors and leaders are perhaps the most under-appreciated people in the world. Even the healthiest of pastors and leaders struggle with the pressures of ministry today. In fact, over 1,500 pastors will leave the ministry each month, and only one out of ten will actually retire as a pastor. Chris Cannon has a bunch of years under his belt as a youth pastor, executive pastor and lead pastor. He understands the dimensions and tensions of leading in the church context and knows the sweet joy of seeing lives transformed through ministry, as well as the pain caused by moral failure. He is a Pastor to pastors, a husband, father, grandfather, and leader at Homeword, located in Southern California.
