FOR THE RECORD:

Ron Tiller is one of my closest friends. I can tell you some things with absolute certainty as I preached for him two weeks before his resignation, knew about the impending resignation before it happened and have talked to him several times since his resignation.

1. He was NOT asked to leave by anybody. He did have a few disgruntled folks rise up against him about 4 months earlier. When I preached there recently those who had left had already been replaced by new people and the Church couldn't have been happier with him.

2. He is going back to Carrolton to pastor. It's the city he's originally from and the city his Father in Law Pastored in.

3. I, perhaps, may not do things exactly like Bro. Tiller but, ultimately, he is a lover of truth and an impeccibly sincere man.

Of those things you can be 100% sure.

Agreed! (bold section) and Thank you Steadfast for your input, I had forgotten that you and Pastor Tiller were close friends.

I just heard that he had resigned and left and it caught me off guard, and I figured someone here could verify if it was indeed true, and where he may have went.

I was able to casually get to know brother Tiller at their camp meeting. He seemed to be a man of hi character and principle. I also got to know a few people in his church. They had much love and respect for he and his wife.

I was surprised to hear that he resigned, they were having revival, the church was doing great under his ministry.

Nothing like the pull of family to move one along. It seems to be a common occurance. I wish him well. It will be difficult for that church to replace him.

Everyone's replaceable. It simply depends upon what they are looking for and really need.

Thanks for clearing the air! At least you shared the "pulpit" side of the story. There is always a "pew" side as well. How do I know? Because I've experienced it myself.

I never understood why the need for a plethora of upci churches in that area since most of them are mediocre at best. I can think of 2 to 3 churches in that area that are experiencing church growth without the relocating of disgruntled saints.

It's ironic that Rod Parsley's church is less than 15 minutes from Tiller's former church in one direction amd less than 15 minutes from Cook's church in another direction. Even with great pillars of truth in that area, about a dozen of Parsley's Bible college students travel two hours south to attend our church. Makes me wonder who is dropping the ball in central Ohio and why....

Were you a ultra-con at one time?
