This group is open to Pastors, those who hold up the hands of pastors and those who feel God's call on their lives to do either. We will use the biblical definition of "Pastor", the one who cares for the flock.
It doesn't matter if you have a church office, parking space, or title, or paycheck from a church. It does matter if you minister to Gods flock.
One of the things that has detracted from the mission of the church is the gulf between the Clergy and Laity, two non-biblical terms. In His army there are no ranks or titles. I believe God's desire is for that gulf to disappear so we can march together in his army.
I personally have spent more than 40 years in roles where I have ministered or held up the hands of those who ministered. I desire only that the church get its act together and we minister to the lost.
So let us come together.
The bible is the guide. His spirit of love must prevail. Other than that, this forum is one that allows open discussion.
