Came across this today: http://www.alittleleaven.com/2009/01/purpose-driven-hireling.html

Fascinating.

That dude makes me mad. Somebody should call the ASPCA on that sheep abuser.

That is very discouraging...unfortunately, the mindset creeps even into groups who condemn the purpose-driven church philosophy too...by putting such an emphasis on preparing for the sermon, and I understand that need to be prepared, but still, ministry is about people, because you glorify Jesus by being about people and having a heart for people.

Pastor Noble says that he does not want to be a visiting pastor...and unfortunately, this is a heresy and mistake that even the great A.W. Tozer made too...Tozer said that he wasn't to be a visiting pastor either, and I just do not undestand it either...
