Summary
Jimmy and Joe talk about the church's need for preachers and teachers, and why some Christians push back against the idea. What is the difference between "the priesthood of all believers" and "the priesthood of the believer"? Does having preachers and teachers create an unnecessary distinction between believers? Why exactly does God give the church preachers and teachers? Check it out and share your thoughts on social media.
