pastor-teacher

— A pastor-teacher is one who loves the people of God. As the evangelist brings them to the Lord, the pastor-teacher leads them on in the Lord. One introduces the unbeliever to salvation, the other introduces him to the Christian life. One is the obstetrician, the other is the pediatrician. A good friend of mine says a pastor-teacher who does not love people is like a shepherd who is allergic to sheep or a woman who wants to have a family but can't stand kids!
