Should We “Witness?” : Re: In defense of preachers

In response to message posted by RichardSpeaks:

Some are called to preach. To those who have been given much, much will be demanded - not only by God, but by the world. The world expects the preacher to walk the talk 100% of the time. Certainly, this is the preacher's deep spiritual desire too. But woe to the preacher who has any human frailties. His followers and critics pounce and tear him to shreds at the first hint of human error or weakness. I have great sympathy for the preacher who struggles in his public walk, just as I struggle in my private one. Yes, I certainly agree - it is much easier to simply walk it rather than preach it. But some are not led by God to take the easy path. They follow the Lord and travel the rough road. Pray for them.
