Hos 4:9
9 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
KJV
The people will be no more or no less than the leader.

A preacher needs to preach the word ,and what the Holy Ghost gives him to preach.Of course preach or teach the truth in love ,but preach the word come what may.
But this happens sometimes preachers back off from preaching something if it don't fit with the group that run with ,they may see something differently from what they used to ,but fear of being excluded from the group sets in.

in your opinion, how frequent does this happen in Pentecost?? What leads to this happening and if so, what is the best way to correct it?

I believe it happens more than the pastor would ever believe.
I think it comes from those closest to him and not necessarily the ones sitting in the pews, per se.

I am very thankful that my wife has never tried to influence what I preach or don't preach.

You are blessed brother, although perhaps "sometimes" that is a good thing.

To be honest I wasn't thinking of the wife, but "friends". That can be influenced by high tithe payers, and/or ministers that are friends, etc.
