Perhaps, says the Jolly Blogger.

Commenting after the latest scandal in my neck of the woods he said (last week)…

I don’t have the quote
but I heard or read somewhere many years ago that some famous preacher,
it might have been Billy Graham, suggested that 90% or more of those
who go into the ministry do so to assuage their own guilt and fix their
own personal problems.

I won’t die on the figure there and I realize that it would be hard
to do a scientific analysis on such a thing, but the point is well
taken – there are lots of people who go into ministry to figure out and
deal with their own personal issues.  I know that was the case with me
- when I first sensed a call to the ministry I think it was as sincere
a sense of call as a totally depraved person like myself can probably
have.  But I have plenty of my own “baggage” as they say and over the
years I looked at ministry as a way to deal with the baggage.

I don’t know that there is any fool proof way to deal with that.
One thing we could do is to go out of our way to tell those considering
ministry that ministry will exacerbate and multiply their personal
problems, not alleviate them.  That doesn’t mean you can’t go into
ministry if you have personal problems, in fact, our brokenness can be
the means of our most effective ministry.  We just have to relieve
ourselves and our ministerial candidates of the illusion that ministry
is an effective means of solving personal problems, if that is the
motive.
