The Man in Secret, the Man in Truth

Titus one seven says, he must not be arrogant. A pastor might pretend to have first steeped his soul in hearing god's voice in bible meditation and having god's ear in prayer, but he can't pretend it for weeks on end. The sheep will know in time. To be part of this humbling aspiring to the office is critical. In this line of work it is vital to labor not under compulsion or for shameful gain, but willingly and eagerly. Yet aspiration alone does not make a pastor. He also needs the affirmation overtime of fellows in his local church,. And often most humbling, appointment of some local church to the office.
