Our pastors are a great blessing to us. They minister to us on so many levels. They may not be experts in every field, but they always can be counted on for spiritual advice. Sometimes I go to a pastor, not just for practical guidance, but for insight relating my circumstances to the will of God and the kingdom of God.
I have learned that sometimes, while I need advice or guidance, it helps our pastors to know what we are thinking about and to know what we are dealing with in life. I have received help from pastor Mitchell because he had already dealt with someone else in similar circumstances.
So pastor, do not be troubled or intimidated by us. We all need help from time to time. And if nothing else, you just might learn something about us that you would never guess just preaching to us.
In marriage, a husband must learn about his wife to stay married to her. In ministry, a pastor must learn about people to be able to minister to real people struggling through life.
