Re: Jonathan Suber Leaves Shreveport
LooneyLucy,
Thanks for sharing this. Unlike SequinsforJesus I was unaware! Very interesting.
While Louisiana has a lot of great people in it there certainly is no comparison between Austin and Shreveport. God would have to appear in person and tell me with an audible voice before I would move to Shreveport!
Do we know who took the church he was pastoring in Shreveort? Was there trouble in paradise or did he just decide to go back to Austin? I know KP is getting old enough he has to be thinking about a transition plan for when he dies (he will never retire)!

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
