May 19- Do you think the professionalization of the role of the pastor has led to an immaturity in the church. We are corporately called to be royal priests, to be alongside each other in our walk with Christ. But so many Christians just listen to the pastor and not each other. Does having full time pastors reduce the opportunities for us all to take on leadership roles, serve in the church, and develop our faith?
For context I grew up and for a long time was part of churches without any full time staff.
