Are Pastors Actually Pastoring?

What does the word pastor mean? In this episode we look at the biblical definition of pastor and compare that to our modern Christian understanding and see what doesn't fit. In fact, many pastors aren't pastors at all, and that may end up being a serious problem for your church, but also for the faith and spiritual well being of the individuals in your church.

We see Christians filling churches every Sunday who lack fundamental understanding of their faith and who aren't being properly fed and cared for. This is due to many churches' poor leadership, which is ultimately due to our poor understanding of the requirements of church leaders and pastors. We need to start caring for other Christians more and taking initiative in our own faiths as well to make sure we are cared for. Pastoring is a hugely important thing in our faith and a necessary part of the body of Christ, and we need to understand properly what that means so we can be stronger Christians.
