The main passages outlining the qualifications of a pastor/elder/overseer/bishop are found in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-9; both of which are nearly identical lists. 1) âany manâ â A pastor is to be a man, not a woman (âLet a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.â 1 Timothy 2:11-12).
A Revelation: There is no such thing as Happiness. We all desire this slippery, impossible-to-grasp, scarce and unrecognizable thing that we call happiness. Hereâs something that will relieve you of this burden of constantly needing to achieve this concept. Happiness doesnât exist. Itâs an elusive idea that we humans have recently invented.
1 We run after those things and still do not find happiness.  We are made to believe that study, job, marriage and kids would make us happy. We study at school, slog in college, beat others to get the best girl/guy in class, get married, have kids, and still search for happiness.
