It;’s like why can’t we share the knowledge rather than make money off of what God has taught us. I guess that’s what you get with a capitalist nation.

We are all men, and all human. No human is “closer” to God or closer to the truth. We put way too much power in names, like Billy Graham, and other leaders. We should be saying that they are intelligent, interesting, but in no way do they hold more of God’s word or something. I’m 100% sure that even great writers and leaders in church have secrets or done unspeakable things as we all have sinned too.

These events, and other leadership events, are supposed to be a brotherhood. A place where people as partners and brothers try to rise up together. Not a place where somehow a leader has a leader. We’re not catholic, we do not have a pope. Higher positions only means that they have more responsibilities, not that they are closer to God. I know we call them pastors, but really God is our pastor. Way too many pastors think they can look down on whoever is “below” them.

I remember a gathering of churches I went once, and it was so disheartening when my pastor who I look up to be talked to by some of the “bigger” pastors like he was the sheep.

Even a child can sometimes understand something better than a “big leader”, as Jesus said children are what we should be like.
