My Daddy would say: "Too many chiefs, not enough Indians." Or maybe..."Big egos, small minds." Perhaps..."Lords over God's heritage?"
But then...my Daddy was never really in love with the organization...he loved God a whole lot though....
He preached about love a lot. I do remember some fellow ministers accusing him of being "soft." I think a lot of ministers could use some "softness", and I don't mean in the head.
