You are an instrumentalist or a wonderful singer and you were offered salary to play or sing in a church. I really do not condemn anyone because some persons are actually trained to play instruments or sing but some just see it as an opportunity to get a platform where they can be seen and some just want the money.
WHAT IS YOUR MOTIVE TAKING THAT JOB AS A PAID SINGER OR INSTRUMENTALIST? Is it your service to God or service to the church? You complain everyday that you feel you're being used, they don't respect you, you are shouted on like a child, you don't hear the messages preached, you don't feel church, the job is too stressful, you are tired, you are not given platform etc. It is clear that you are just there because of the money. NO WONDER YOU FIND YOURSELVES MOVING FROM ONE CHURCH TO ANOTHER OR LOOKING FOR A CHURCH WHERE YOU WILL BE PAID HIGHER SALARY. ARE YOU TRADING YOUR SERVICE TO GOD?
Every organization has a structure, but today's church has been structured as an organisation where people do what they feel is right like any other company out there. Lets not play about it. We are Christ like and our mandate is to spread the gospel. When you trade your ministry with money, expect anything even an unexpected sack letter or ill treatment because you signed a deal when you were employed there.
ASK YOURSELF AGAIN. What is my motive taking this job as a paid staff? you hardly sit to hear the message preached, a lot of paid staff especially musicians don't grow spiritually where they are being paid. They look for the word somewhere else.
Be wise people. This topic may not go down well with some persons but let me drop this here....
Why you joined a church can determine how you will leave!!!
IF YOU JOINED AS A HIRED ( PAID) STAFF, ONE DAY YOU WILL LEAVE AS A FIRED (SACKED) STAFF.
CHECK YOUR MOTIVE!!!
GOD BLESS YOU.
