His wife is a precious lady, and is filled with the Holy Ghost. He is afraid that when she goes down to the alter with everyone else, someone will think she is under conviction. He just wants to enjoy the service and fellowship and let things be.

I told him to chill! They will probably not give his family a problem with just attending. He understands that they can never be used in leadership. He is OK with that...I think!
The important thing is that I am sure they will accept his tithes even if they don't his wife!

That much is probably true! I've been told by another friend who went to visit him, that he is living large!

Re: What Would You Say?

I imagine if CRNAs make 6 figures a year that an anesthesiologist makes much more than his underlings. His tithing will be a great financial boon to the church.

All the men in my nursing school class were going straight into ICUs so they could go on to graduate CRNA programs after their required 2 years of Critical Care. It scares the willies out of me, the idea of being responsible for putting a patient to sleep, ventilating them and then waking them up again.

Re: What Would You Say?

Thin ice here. The pastor and or saints may not say anything to them at all about it. The pastor may however make the women wearing pants issue his candy stick of choice to preach on when she is there. If it were me in his position I would wait until someone says something to them, whether it be pastor or not. Then speak to the pastor and explain that she does not see that as a revelation unto salvation. If he continues to have a problem with it then move on, but being proactive about it is not the samething as talking to the pastor up front about it. Procativity on this subject should be considered planning ahead incase the problem arrives. I am sure the HG will guide him through conversations about this.

You trying to guess who I'm talking about?

He has two children. The oldest is a boy and the youngest is a girl.

I do know that his home is on a golf course and he had a huge built-in pool in the back yard.
