    Yes, as there are clergy who are gifted to teach, as well as laity to do such in say Sunday School/cell groups.

    All pastors should teach. And all teachers should pastor their students. But the gifts God has given to the church are different. The pastor is the shepherd. The teacher is the discipler. Their duties often overlap, but are quite distinct.
