I think he's a good pastor. Just because he always smiles, doesn't mean he's a bad person. Think of it this way, he's filled with the Holy Ghost. Amen??

If you are asking for historys sake, Ronin is right about the mostly Protestant, and Anglican thing. (In England.) If you are asking for now a days... don't worry so much about what church is right, and focus on getting your heart right. Your local pastor isn't going to be your judge, God is. Line up with His rules. Get a relationship with Him. Notice I said relationship, not religion?

It comes with the territory.  \n\nA long time ago, I was attending a huge church in a metropolitan area of the city and after I had been there for almost 10 years a friend asked me a question about theology.  \n\nI answered his question with many references and a very detailled explanation to which he replied, "You have a very acute understanding of what the pastor of this church teaches every Sunday morning".  And then it hit me...\n\nI had allowed myself to be swept into a fundamental mindset which didn't allow me to really express myself as Father had created me to do.  Instead of caring for individuals around me, I had grown into this person who had to be right all the time because of personal insecurities.\n\nI think Christians need to start really thinking about what they individually believe and rely less on what is sold to them on Sunday mornings...

I am sorry. I was lost in prayer. Welcome to our church. Here is a beer. How can we help you? And, may I say, you are looking very very nice today, if you know what I mean. :)

The ideal salary for a pastor is to live at the median level of their congregation. \nThe 3 pastors in my family all went for 3-7 years of training, and live below a financial level of most middle-income people.\n\nThe few that make the big bucks do not comprise the majority of pastors.

Oh good.  Two pastors.  Both like minded.  Double the fun.  Thanks!  BTW, in order for you to be a good-will ambassador, pretend you're someone else.  Wonder where Karma is tonight.

I think that we all struggle in our faith one way or another. Questioning God's existence doesn't really cross most of our minds. We may question why He allows things to happen or we may even question our own Christian walk and our relationship with God. My pastors -and I've had a few in my life -haven't been perfect. In fact there was one who was my Dad's boss that treated his underlings shabbily and used the church vehicle for personal business. I think he may've even taken some of the better donations given to the church for his own. I do know that he was eventually caught by his bosses with his hand in the cookie jar and in adultery. He was speedily fired. As for weird things in a worship service? I recall visiting a Charismatic service to see what it was like. I met one of those pastors who held rather rambunctious healing services. You know the type.; they call you forward for healing even though you haven't volunteered or asked for it. He claimed -a few times- to be given a word of knowledge about some type of secret sin in some person's life. I found this made me extremely uncomfortable because I do not believe that God would humiliate an individual in this manner. Nor do I think that Jesus would compel anyone to come for healing. God is a Gentleman, and He never forces Himself on anybody. Neither should His servants

I am 41 years old and I am a personal secretary for my pastor at her church and I am also bible school teacher as well.\n\nNote: I answers some of these questions because of the experience (personal) that I have gone through in hopes that whatever I have to offer them far as knowledge and wisdom they will use it at there own discretion. Some of the people that I have answered to have used my advice and have had some success with and some well I don't know but whatever I give I give to help people with there problems and not just give them any old answer to get a mere two points.\n\nI appreciate that you were willing to ask what kind of people are out there that are answering these questions and I hope that I gave you an idea of what kind of person I am for the reason I answers so many people! Thanks..
