Read an excellent article on Relevant this morning on church politics...
"Next, and perhaps most important, we need to realize that we are all transformed in and through Christ. Leadership is not about “lording over people” but coming under Christ for His glory. We need to live beyond our humanity. Our churches need to embrace life-transformation over structural details. The truth is the church exists for Christ’s glory—not for man’s. "
This quote definitely reflects my church in that the minister is all about giving glory to God and none of the light shining on him just because he's a pastor. What an selfless act for a pastor unlike most who want to take credit for their "flock" and boast about increased membership numbers.
I like my little church and am happy to be an "offical" member! :)
