Lord I pray for President Trump, that his conscience may be cleansed and awakened. Guide him to discern right from wrong and to choose the path of true mercy. May he, like you, become a defender of the fatherless, the widow, and the stranger, rather than their oppressor.
Pastor 1: my opinion is that yard work is harmful on Sunday because it’s good to rest one day per week Pastor 2: the Holy Spirit lead me to these verses that say to never do yard work on Sunday Pastor 3: the Bible is clear, yard work on Sunday is a sin and continuing in sin…

They gotta call a Conclave. Right now, they’re giving all the members of the Bible College of Protestant Cardinals a chance to get there so they can convene and lock themselves in a Shepherds Con until one of these tweed jackets comes out and tells all the women to go home.
It is utterly insane that a church that had an elderly ill senior pastor has absolutely no succession plan. None.
