Questionability, Do You Believe In It?

[Digging4Truth]

Do you believe that leadership should be open to being questioned on their decisions?

What leadership are you talking about?

Absolutely. AS long as the problem is yours and not someone else's. By this I mean that you do not have the right to ask about the Pastor's dealings with other situations other than your own.

Oh yeah!

I don't think we should "blindly" follow leadership...if we have questions about their teaching/preaching, we should be able to question them about it.

When I typed out the question I stopped for a moment and considered what word to use there.

I purposely used Leadership because I would like to know your opinion on whatever type of leadership you would like to comment.

But... this being a religous forum... I am speaking mainly of various forms of church leadership.

But what happens when you do question them?

You are out the door...how dare you question leadership...you might go out the church door and be run over by a drunk driver on your way home...and that is what you deserve for questioning authority.

Indeed...

And... as with all things... moderation is the key. Intent has a lot to do with it as well.

I think we should feel free to question when we don't understand or have a problem with something...

But we should also search ourselves and do our best to make sure within our ownselves that we aren't just being arguementative or attempting to control someone to our own ends.

Hmmm...I don't know! LOL

The last time my husband questioned leadership, he found that he was no longer teaching the Adult Sunday School.
