*Disclaimer: Jonathan is not down on pastors. In fact, Jonathan and Keeli have been pastors to college students for years. Jonathan is, however, down on "pastors" who make it their goal to manipulate and create formulas for success in order for the "stupid sheep" to be under the control of their shepherd. Ever hear of the Shepherding Movement? It was a hellish thing and left a wake of destruction in the lives of many believers. Let's not repeat history for the sake of building one's ministry. In this video blog, Jonathan reveals the truth about controlling pastors and church leaders. Pastors (along with apostles, prophets, evangelists, and teachers) are a gift to the Body of Christ so that its members may be fully equipped to do the work of the ministry (Ephesians 4:11-16), not to convince them that their purpose in life is abandon their hopes and dreams to get behind their pastor's vision. Pastors are not a position to control, but rather a gift to edify and build (the people - not just a bigger building). If the supernatural power and love of Jesus does not regularly transform the lives of people in your community... RUN until you find a church who sees "the stuff" confirming the Word that is preached with signs and wonders (Mark 16:15-20).
