Pastor Priorities Analysis

List the order which you feel the Pastor should do the following duties: *

___ Counseling 
___ Teaching Bible Classes/Studies
___ Community Involvement
___ Preaching
___ Children’s Ministries (AWANA, VBS, etc.) ___ Shepherding the flock
___ Evangelism and Outreach
___ General visitation
___ Administrative duties
___ Hobbies
___ Visitation of sick, elderly, hospital calls ___ Training leadership
___ Youth work (Teens, youth group, etc.) ___ Study & Sermon preparation
___ Personal family time (wife & kids)

*No one is capable of doing everything equally well (see Eph 4:16). If you expect Superman in all areas you will be disappointed. Reasonable expectations, however, are not only valid but wise.
