Ephesians 4
11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— 16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
People enter ministry for many different reasons, and for some the social and personal esteem gained by "being in charge" is one reason why some believe they are "being called" into a Pastoral ministry. But, and this is a big but, the vast majority of followers of Christ who believe they are called into ministry believe so because of a deep conviction within their hearts that God wishes to work through them in order to edify and build up the body of Christ. And of course one does not need to be called a "Pastor" in order to do so, but rather to be humbly obedient to Christ's call.
It is important for anyone who wishes to serve God in a ministerial capacity, to remember that as a "Pastor" one is a "shepherd", and Jesus is the good shepherd, the shepherd who gave His life for His sheep. Ultimately any shepherd in Christ's body is called under the shepherding of Christ; a Pastor is in fact an undershepherd, one who in Christ is willing if necessary to give his life for those who he is shepherding; one who is willing to guide Christ's sheep to pasture, to mend their wounds, to encourage and uplift His sheep in such a way as to be pleasing to his master, our Lord.
I realize as a Baptist we like to have one person in charge, yet I often wonder if in giving into "organizational" structure, we miss some of the benefits of seeing Christ as our great shepherd, and His undershepherds as His servants, even as we all are in Him.
