Simson calls them fingers in a hand - Frost & Hirsch call them genius - But how do we use them?

The evangelist tells the story you’ve never heard before.

The teacher tells a story, and if you don’t understand, he tells it in a different way.

The pastor tells his story and the story of others so you aren’t alone.

The apostle tells the story of everyone so they can work together.

The prophet tells the future of the story in metaphor, imagery and poetry.

Is church leadership merely interplay of these simple story-tellers?

Invitation. Identity. Unity. Community. Opportunity.

That's a take I've never heard. I'm gonna chew on this one. Thanks.
