It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:11-13
Talk about a job description. The question I ask myself and all those in church leadership is "Are we preparing our people or planning services and events?" Unity, growth, knowledge, maturity, and the whole measure of Christ is at stake.
