Serving in ministry in any capacity takes guts. When one assumes the role of leader within a church they in essence put a target on their back – a spiritual one and a physical one. Whether warranted or not, ministers and church leaders are held to a higher standard than others and perhaps they should live at a higher standard as by default they are the example many look to emulate in their desire to know God more.

One of the greatest ChurchBusters is "idolatry". I'm not talking eight foot tall totem poles of carved birds and beasts hanging out in our living rooms. I'm talking about anything that comes between us and the relationship God desires to have with us.

In Scripture were two kings that exemplify what happens when good men and women fail to remove idols from their lives and the impact these idols can have on their ministries and the lives of those under their ministry. These two kings were King Asa and King Josiah.

Both men were said to be good men who "did what was right in the eyes of the Lord" but beyond that there was a significant difference between the two.

Here is their ChurchBuster episode.
