Personally I think the Church (universal) is full of people who are teaching the Bible but aren't gifted to do so. In terms of spiritual gifts, teaching is 3rd for me every time I take one of the tests and the work I had to put in to preach this past week just confirms it's not my #1 or #2 gift. The less you are naturally gifted at something the harder you have to work at it.
The reason I think the Church has tons of people teaching that shouldn't be, is because we have assume the senior pastor should be the best pastor, teacher, and leader in the church but that is pretty much impossible. Being great at 2 out of those 3 distinct spiritual gifts is pretty rare I believe. I hope videoteaching.com will help pastors who aren't gifted in teaching leverage their gifts more while still providing excellent Biblical teaching.
