Isn't this what I have been trying to say? We pile 90% of the honor on the pastors, and the Bible says whichever we consider to be "less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour".
Maybe we should be looking to honor the custodian, but we instead heap all of our honor on the pastor.
Hey, I didn't say it, but I did quote it. It's Bible!!!

the issue is that one man can't do it all, it is better to have a group of elders working together to run the church, isn't it? this way more are sharing in responsibility and one isn't getting burnt out.
