As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold gift of God. I Peter 4:10

Pastors and teachers are an important part of the body of Christ, although it is necessary to have more than one to minister in order to build up and equip the saints. It was never meant to have one pastor lead the entire body but to have multiple pastors minister and teach the body.
Many of the "Five-fold ministry" operate in different gifts as did the apostle Paul who acted as a pastor at times, a teacher and an evangelist although his primary gift was apostle. The main purpose of the Five-fold ministry team is to equip the saints for the work of service!
Throughout my journey with Jesus, I have had several excellent pastors that also have the gift of teaching including Pastor David Wilkerson who inspired me to go into residential ministry. He was also a teacher and minister of the gospel as well as a true prophet of God!
And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. II Timothy 2:2
Your servant in Christ, Timothy Laughlin
