” I don’t think God calls any of us to earn a paycheck peddling Him”
I don’t think G_D calls any of us to build big buildings.
I don’t think G_D calls any of us to be over others.
I don’t think G_D calls us to pay someone to pray for us.
I don’t think G_D calls us to pay someone to read the Word to us.
Leave the milk people and look for yourself for the meat of the Word.

Indeed, this is why I urge people to really read James: it's a tough, convicting book full of practical things and great theology.
(I bet there would be a huge revival in America if churches seriously taught on James for an entire year; it would put a lie to accusations of [a] hypocracy, and [b] the moralistic, therapeutic, deism feel-good church-member.)
