A church leader cannot excuse his/her action by saying, there is no other better way, when the action in question is being weighted. For "blessed are all they that put their trust in Him". Psalm 2:12b
This definition of the leader ranges from pastoral to teaching to fellowship to choir and even to preaching. I do not consider counseling a separate office nor any offices that is not in the Bible, as the function of counseling is already covered by the previous categories in different measures. Should one considers oneself only as a church counselor, then that person must really learn the meaning of humility.
