The Pastor right or wrong has no fear of retrobution or loss of position.
The really good pastor's are people person's no matter how you slice them up.
The others deserve the attitudes because they are not people person's.
In every walk of life there are checks and balances.
The only measure in a church is how many people stay or go.
Take inventory around your church.
In the past 5 years have your core members grown and stayed?
Or do you experience turn over every couple of years?
The more turn over you have, the more you should turn over your church and move on.
