So, we asked God to end this stuff at the church quickly. He did. Again with the concept of "be careful what you ask for." The pastor announced last night that he is not wrong, he has not handled anything wrong, he did act angry a few times and we should forgive him for that, and this is going to be a traditional church and if you don't like it you should leave. We had been told previously that we could write out any questions we had, last night we were told that they were hurtful and we had been mean to his family. I'm not seeing that.
All in all, my family will leave. While I still believe the man is in sin and at one time I thought we should be there as a voice of the truth, that time is no more. He is in the hands of God for him to deal with (it always was, but we were continually praying for him - being there helped us focus on that). We will step out and see what God is doing in other places in our city.
This is not the first time we have dealt with things like this, I hope it's our last, but I doubt it. Sadly men in leadership forget they are responsible for the sheep under them and it's easy to fall into sin. I long for the day that God is more fully revealed in the hearts of man.
Now, the migraine that has troubled me all day is getting more demanding of my attention. It wants noise reduced and lights out. I think I shall do as it requests.
