Having someone "to go to who can correct us" with no additional definition seems a little vague?
Who is to be the "someone"? What is a "ministry covering"? Does it work the same for a regular saint as it does for, say, a pastor of a church? So the pastor has friends who can give him honest, critical advice. So could a regular saint say "I have friends who keep me in check and advise me" without the pastor being one of those particular friends?
