The Purpose of the Pastor Part 1

About this episode

The episode discusses the purpose of the pastor and the negative impact of those in leadership for the wrong reasons.

It reflects poorly on the church as a whole when a pastor or leader is in it for all the wrong reasons. Whether it’s a thirst for money or power, it can be destructive in more ways than one. And of course people like that exist in our day. First Peter chapter five is before us today. It’s a wonderful passage that outlines the purpose of the pastor.
