What the Bible says about Motives, Godly
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Timothy 3:1 It is not wrong to want to be an elder, or an overseer, or a pastor. If one's motives are right, it is not an improper ambition. Being a pastor of a church and helping the people are good works, if they are pursued in a godly way. Richard T.
