When I worked in church ministry, I would often be asked if I was the youth or assistant pastor. Sometimes I would let it go, and at other times I felt compelled to say, “Well, actually I’m the Associate Pastor!” For most people, if not all, it didn’t matter, but for me, it was another step up the church corporate ladder from my days working in a church office and students work. Maybe one day I would have the title of Senior Pastor and all the privileges that came with it, like a bigger salary or even better, a bigger office!
