Thanks again for this great post. I can speak from experience being ordained too young. We did enjoys years of joy as the church focused on the core principle doctrines, but as so many go distracted by making minor doctrines major, a storm came in and nearly caused us to shipwreck. Now having enjoyed rest and strengthening from God, my wife and I are asking God for direction regarding the next ministry opportunity.
Yeah, launching leaders into too much responsibility before they are prepared to handle it is a big problem! That is a problem that I see getting bigger in the next few years as so many older pastors retire and younger pastors are pushed into lead roles before they are ready to take them.
