Thinking after reading Rick Warren's interview

Very provocative thought and I am still thinking after this reading this section from an interview with Rick Warren. Title of the whole interview: Rick Warren's Final Frontier. I may not agree 100% because there are great pastors and smarter than mission leaders. At the same time, there is great truth that much of the work of the church is done by parachurch organizations.

Excerpt from interview:

QUESTION: Pastors across the board seem much less influential in the larger culture than they were a generation ago. What happened? 

RESPONSE BY RICK WARREN: My generation fell in love with the parachurch. My generation and the generation before me built all the great parachurch organizations: Focus on the Family, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Wycliffe, Campus Crusade, InterVarsity, Young Life, Youth for Christ, and so on.
The reason why the church doesn't have greater impact is because the smartest brains and the most money have gone outside the church. If you go to a missions conference at any Christian college, go out and look. There won't be a single local church organization. It will all be parachurch—100 percent.
