Re: How close should a pastor get to the members?
Stand offish Pastors are not what I like, but I understand the stand offishness.
Sometimes, some saints can become very needy-- looking to the Pastor to meet needs that God intended for God only to meet.
Sometimes, some saints have ulterior motives as to why they want to get "close". It has to be so tough to be so loving, so open and so on guard-- for your own good as well as theirs-- at the same time.
I don't envy Pastors, I pray for them.
