Chris.
The Minister has to be watchful both inside and outside of the Church environment. Being watchful inside for those in need and also having to handle people who have 'issues' that make them difficult members. The Minister also needs to be watchful in Prayer for the needs of Church Members. The Minister needs to lead the Church well.
