Title: What Is a Pastor?
Speaker: Roger Whiteside
Date: February 22, 2026
Bible: Ephesians 4:1-14
The sermon centers on the biblical foundation and vital role of pastoral leadership within the church, emphasizing that while the offices of apostle and prophet were temporary and no longer exist, the roles of pastor, evangelist, and teacher remain essential for the church's health and growth. Drawing from Ephesians 4, it underscores that Christ is the head of the church, and pastors are His under-shepherds entrusted with protecting, feeding, and guiding the flock through faithful teaching, prayer, and godly character. The passage outlines the rigorous biblical qualifications for a pastor—blamelessness, self-control, a loving home life, and a reputation for integrity—while affirming that the church must prayerfully seek God's chosen leader, not settle for haste or convenience. The congregation is called to honor, support, and love their pastor, recognizing that a godly leader is indispensable for spiritual unity, doctrinal stability, and the church's flourishing, all while maintaining a posture of humility and dependence on God's timing.
