Minister of religion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1269 words) |
 | In most Protestant churches, a minister is a member of the ordained clergy who leads a congregation or participates in a role in a parachurch ministry; such a person may also be called a Pastor, Preacher, Bishop, Chaplain or Elder. |
| Ministers are generally seen as set apart from the community to which they minister through ordination. |
| However the variety of relationships is large, ranging fom the low church view of a minister as one of the people to that of the minister as priest, set apart and with special authority. |
