I was talking with a friend of mine who has been a pastor for around 20 years (maybe more). He said something that I thought was interesting, and thought I'd see how you guys felt on it.
He told me something like "You don't become a pastor until you've been there 3 years."
In you experience as pastors or church staff, has that been true? Does it usually take that long for the church to trust you, your wisdom, and guidance? Or does it take longer or shorter in your experience?
