I agree if you are going to a tremendous church like POA, then it would definitely be dumb to leave because of not playing enough.
But people do leave good churches because they feel their talents are not being appreciated.
This is what a "true" pastor or music minister is for. Just b/c someone has talent does not mean they are ready to be used by God in service. Humility will go far.
How about when a church has people who 'think' they have talent and are blown away when no one else sees it!
Hush your mouth!
That never happens.
What happens though, is that the other saints don't have the discernment to see how talented and anointed that person is.

Those kind you can send to a neighboring church.

You have no agruement from me!
I seem to run more into people who 'think' they have talent, and they can be just as convinced they have it as someone who truly does- those can be some of the most difficult to deal with.
There are a couple in the church I attend,who feel they are called to be the church police,where can I send them to ?

Come on Elder, your letting me down. I thought you were a spiritually discerning man. I can affirm that I am not HH or HW. This is a true story that I am now regretting even mentioning. lol
I repent in sackcloth and ashes for my gossiping. I don't even feel worthy to bear the Apostolic name now.
Feel free to PM me and I can give you my name and my Pastors name. Telephone numbers also.
Personally, I have a huge problem with unethical pastors and I feel like that is one of the greatest threats to the kingdom and the primary reason that churches do not trust each other enough to have healthy fellowship...let alone reach an entire city in a coordinated, impactful way. I'm tired of pastors going right down the street to start a church and look to grow not by reaching the unchurched, but by trying to pull away from other churches in the area. I have very little respect for those types and I feel like it makes the unity needed to reach an entire city impossible. If someone in our area wants me or anyone else to do anything and they are unwilling or too unethical to contact my pastor first...it is a definite no-go. I am of the firm opinion that if you know someone to be a member of another church, you contact the pastor first.
