Mike Pileggi’s Blog
This is where I write about Scripture, theology, ministry, and the Christian life. Some posts are for anyone who wants to understand the Bible more carefully. Others are aimed at pastors, Bible teachers, and ministry leaders. I’m not trying to add to the noise, I simply want to offer something useful and grounded in the Word.
Blessings,
Mike Pileggi

What Psalm 23 Taught Me About Impostor Syndrome
“What Psalm 23 Taught Me About Impostor Syndrome” We often read Psalm 23 for comfort, but verse 5 recently confronted me in a new way. “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies…” What kind of God prepares a table not for the worthy, but for the weary? This post explores what that verse teaches us about God’s character—and how it speaks directly to the quiet battle so many of us face: the feeling that we don’t belong. This isn’t a story about David. It’s a story about the Shepherd who hasn’t changed.
