I dont want to get this mixed up with a pastor simply showing interest in his/her members, what i am asking is... Does your pastor come sleep over at your house? does your pastor always seem to be 'chillin' with members outside of church??? I don't look at the pastor as my HOMIE... That's kinda where i was going with the question. Eventhough the church i used to go to, which is a large church, had counselers who would call us when we were MIA... the pastor rarely called... I now go to a smaller church, in a different state, and things are not run like that... I am not saying that MY pastor is like that, for those who asked... but i know a lot of people who tell me they were at the mall with their pastor, went to the movies, was at a bbq, was kickin it at the house with the pastor.... How many of you feel that is inappropriate??? I feel that when a person in leadership gets to close to those whom they are leading, and they don't keep that LINE clear to those whom they lead, respect can be lost, and misunderstandings arise.... Ya feelin me now???
