The Only One Facing As Much Pressure As the Pastor is ... The Pastor&;s Kid
 
Dad may be following God&;s call, but the Pastor&;s kids (PKs) are just following mom and dad. Often to devastating results.
 
Barnabas Piper &; son of Pastor and bestselling author John Piper &; has experienced the challenges of being a PK first-hand. With empathy, humor, and personal stories, he addresses the pervasive assumptions, identity issues and accelerated scrutiny PKs face.
 
But more than just stating the problems &; he shares the one thing a PK needs above all else (as do their pastor/father and church) is to live in true freedom and wholeness.
Barnabas Piper is a PK, the son of well-known pastor John Piper. He writes for World Magazine at WorldMag.com and blogs regularly.  He and his wife live in the Nashville area with their two daughters.
