Memphis needs Jesus desperately. I love it here. Sometimes I go down to a terrible neighborhood to eat soul food at Melanie's Restaurant. I'm always the only white guy in the room. They love me there. I drew quite a crowd when I decided to try chitlins.

I agree! How is that good preaching from Collierville??? Because I want to make a suggestion to them. They are part of the frozen chosen.

You are a brave man. I mean eating the chitlins, not being the only white guy there. Although that was probably a close second.

I am sorry Deacon I meant to say how far is that great preaching from Collierville.

I think your earlier prophecy became true and they made the DS their "interim" pastor with no end in sight.

I am sure he is a good man and I do not mean this to be seen as critical but I have seen this many times either the official in charge becomes the pastor or prevents anyone he personally does not like from being pastor or causes more problems than solutions. I have helped with a few of these ordeals and in my experience get a good man in there the people will accept and get out. Since ministers love folks it is easy to get attached when helping a congregation through hardships and when a church is prosperous then sometimes our judgment can get clouded(again not directing this at this Elder). I imagine he is there for good. Which might be the best?

Are they allowing him to continue as the "interim" pastor of TPC since it is not a permanent position?
