Excellent insights. We attend a small church and the pastor believes everybody plays a role in the church but he still preaches the message. He opens every service with a chance for people to share. Of course, this is a small church. It would not work in a large group setting, but it is important to help people grow and to realize that They need to bring something to share to be a part of the body of Christ. It's not just coming and getting what you want, but it's sharing and growing together. A lot of large churches have cell groups or small groups which is where people can really grow too. Blessings!
