I've seen pastors lose children to sudden death, and all of a sudden the system is in an uproar against the pastor. Because the pastor is functioning at a lower level, and the most dependent people in the system can't tolerate him or her functioning at that lower level. They poke and push to get the pastor to function at a higher level. Trauma or transition. For example, a pastor who retires after thirty-five years, a pastor who leaves because of sexual misconduct, or a town that loses a major employer.
