Five Types of Dysfunctions Among Pastors


According to Larry Stockstill, senior pastor of Bethany World Prayer Center list down 5 common dysfunctions among ministers today:

1. Lack of Fathering

– there is no affirmation, encouragement or spiritual covering.

2. Lack of Correction

– no accountabilty resulting in pride and moral failure.

3. Lack of Fruitfulness

– no training in evangelism and discipleship, preventing churches from multiplying as they should.

4. Lack of healing

– many pastors suffer silently because of sins and addictions.

5. Lack of teaching

– many in ministry today are untaught, resulting in biblically illiterate churchs.
