006 - The Pastorate
Here we are right in the middle of Pastor Appreciation Month, so what better subject to tackle than the pastorate? What is the Biblical role of the pastor? Some people have the mistaken idea that the pastor only works one day a week while others on the opposite end of the spectrum think he is the only one in the church qualified to do the work of the ministry. Joining us to dispel these myths and open the Scriptures with us is Pastor James White of the Lighthouse Community Church in Vernon, Alabama. He is also the host of the Everyday Ministry Podcast. So, if you really want to appreciate your pastor, listen in and find out just a little bit of the weight he carries.
