» pink101 - Does That Answer Your Question?

In response to Foreign Israeli sources posted by BrianTubbs:
.
Who do I call to get that funding, Pink?
.
First, you write a letter to Netanyahoo in which you tell him that your congregation includes members that can influence foreign aid policy to Israel and you invite him to come and be a visiting speaker at Siglo. Netenyahoo is the secret first contact. Ask Johnny Boy Haggee about that one. And, oh yeah, you gotta be very politically active in supporting Eratz Israel (Greater Israel the borders of which go into present day Iraq and include most of the Middle East).
.
.
Next, you call every possible media contact letting them know that he will be there for meetings.l
.
Then you make sure you have an auditorium large enough to handle a massive crowd.
.
You have to be sure that you have built a replica of the Wailing Wall on Siglo's campus.
.
Don't worry, the money from Israel will come pouring down into baskets pressed down and over flowing--like manna from Heaven.
.
I think you do a good job of explaining the difference to Wendell. The Pastor IS a shepherd and he has to have a VERY PERSONAL relationship with his flock--one on one. That is something that a corporate leader like Haggee cannot ever do. The pastor shares a similarity with the physician, the psychiatrist, the marriage counselor, the family counselor, the psychologist, and the adviser of every type.
.
So, now, how do you pay such a person?
.
They NEVER get their economic worth in pay. It's something they have to experience in their soul. My hat is off to the REAL pastors of America. There aren't many of them left--generally they are in small rural areas. And, their congregations bemoan the fact they are unable to pay them more.
.
Does that answer your question?
.

.
With all our differences, I think we all get the idea that you are that kind of a pastor.
