What Is a Pastor? | Episode 78

from The Waking up to Grace Podcast · host Waking up to Grace

What is a pastor in the Bible? Modern church tradition often pictures a pastor as the single leader of a congregation, but is that the picture we find in Scripture?In this episode, Lenny examines Ephesians 4, 1 Peter 5, Acts 20, and the qualifications given in Timothy and Titus to explore the biblical relationship between pastors, shepherds, elders, and overseers. We also consider what pastoral leadership is meant to accomplish, how authority should function among believers, and why Christ remains the Chief Shepherd of His church.Read the Companion Bible Study and join the conversation:https://wakinguptograce.com/078-what-is-a-pastor/
