It's natural for people to give more honor to pastors who are upfront, who speak and teach the word of God, and who are more visible than other types of leaders. But there are many other leaders who work behind the scenes, who serve in the ministry even though others may not see or know them personally except for a few. They are called lay leaders. Without them, the real ministry will not be possible. We need to honor such leaders just as we honor pastors.
