In referring to pastors who spend all of their time in their study surrounding themselves with great books (which is surely an easy trap for book-loving pastors to fall into), Dr. Kooistra said this:
"The Bible is not your job. The Bible is your tool. People are your job."
This reminds me of a definition for "busyness" that I once heard someone else share with a group of pastors: "Often 'busyness' is essentially laziness. It's working on the easy things instead of the hard thing."
