Terry Black was one of those men you could follow after as he followed Christ. He was a humble man, one who wasn't covetous or heavy handed or unmerciful.

This is hard for me, the area I prayed for so often in a spiritual storm. TPC will survive and God will have a church.
Memphis is full of many good, godly, faithful Christians. This situation is sad as well as the Grey Road situation, but Jesus has plenty of witnesses and churches that preach Christ and Him crucified and the truth will keep marching on. Pray for the fallen, consider yourself lest you fall, do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God!
