One of the most important roles a pastor plays is that of CHIEF ENCOURAGER. One of the easiest ways you can encourage the people in your church is to occasionally send a brief text message to let them know you are thinking of them. When you send those text messages, why not include Scripture?
Here are 10 Bible verses you can send as encouraging text messages to the people in your congregation.
- Exodus 15:2 – The Lord is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.

- Psalm 118:24 – This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
