Question:

When my friends ask me who is the pastor of my church, what should I say?

Tell them that we have several pastors, teachers, evangelists, and brothers and sisters with a variety of other spiritual gifts (Romans 12:6-8; 1 Corinthians 12:8-10,28; Ephesians 4:11).  The Head of the Church is Christ (Ephesians 5:23; Colossians 1:18) and the Leader of Worship and Ministry is the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3,7,11; 1 Thessalonians 5:19,20).  Ask your friends if there is a Scripture limiting the number of pastors to one per church.  There is no reason for embarrassment.  Explain to those who ask that we believe everyone has a gift and should be using it.
