The Advantages of Having a Pastor on Staff

I think that's a great idea, particularly if the person is knowledgeable on how to help people with these things. A lot of churches now have full time counselors on staff or they bring in counselors to help their staff members when they're working through something. I was at a recently a large church in Austin, Texas that has now a full time counselor on their executive team who basically just coaches and helps all their top tier leaders. And so, yeah, there's huge advantages to designating a staff member to help people, love people, care for people and help people process tough stuff and heavy stuff in life. It's awesome. That's so good.
