This is from a week ago but I think it speaks volumes to how the church today handles the sin of pastors but not the spiritual formation of them.  This is regarding Ted Haggard and his fall.

But Eddie Gibbs, a professor of church growth at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, Calf., said Mr. Haggard’s accountability structure was a failure. The flaw, he said, was that it provided for intervention only when the pastor was about to crash and burn, rather than establishing a process to check on him routinely to prevent such an outcome.
