Honest and sincere question here (figured I should put that in there since I have a reputation of being silly -- and rebellious):
Don't you think it's a telling sign when so many PK's all have the same concept of both pastors and saints? I mean, isn't that pointing to a fault somewhere? And I'm not saying that, as PK's, we should be given a pass and left out of the equation -- but, in the end, the equation, more times than necessary, points to having a problem in the system as a whole. Especially for those who find themselves in this situation. And, let's be honest, it isn't a single instance here and there -- it is something that is unquestionably there.
Now, I know people will say, "Get over it" -- yada yada yada
But how are we, as the humans who created such a structure attempting to CHANGE the structure? We aren't. Or very few are.
yea. I think in some ways the system is broken. But ive seen the same kind of outcome from Baptist PKs that I know. I dont think it is unique to pentecost.
i hope we get better.
