1. Preach to the hungry, not the discontented.

2. You cannot pastor everyone. When someone wants to leave you, graciously let them go.

3. When someone backslides or leaves for "greener pastures," don't take it personally.

4. Never, ever allow yourself or your family to become isolated.

5. Preach the Word, not what you've heard others preach. Preach the Word, not what you feel pressured into preaching. Preach the Word, not traditions or personal preferences and convictions.

6. Crucify your selfish insecurities. It's not about you anyway. Refuse to give in to doubt, fear and depression. They all stem from your inability to fully trust God. Surrender complete control to Him, and you'll never have problems with "control issues."

But I really think it is replacing the moving of the Spirit with the thoughts and inventions of men.
The disciples used the gifts of the Spirit as well as insight from the Spirit to work with people. They did not have colleges to attend in order to learn secular psychology, etc. I am not saying these things may not benefit one in ministry, but to say ministers HAVE TO HAVE these basic understandings is wrong in my opinion.
Now, I do not think it is analogous to the fact that we have technology today that the disciples never had, and if we use technology then.... They're two different animals altogether.
I think God's Spirit is meant to supply all we need to understand in these areas of sociology.
