Underwear and Tubesocks

And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,  -Eph. 4:11-12

According to the Bible pastors (among the other office mentioned) are gifts to the church.  But I think that most pastors are probably more like underpants and tube socks to a 7 year old boy rather than a shiny new bicycle.  They are necessary but not all that shiny.
