Just a stab in the dark here . . .
But would not it be that people figure the man who is God-ordained with a burden for their salvation will also have their best interests at heart when it comes to advising personal matters?
It's tough for me to say because I have not availed myself of my pastor's counsel but a few times, and it wasn't for the traditional things such as marriage or internal bickering.
