They probably consider it visitation!
Speaking of which, I saw a pastor and an evangelist you know at lunch Sunday... and the pastor invited me to miss my home church to come hear the Original JE Burgess preach... the pastor was young Jon Hair. 
Of course, being a loyal saint, I declined although I would have loved to hear Josh's dad preach.

He's 81, just had two knee replacements this summer (six weeks apart, the last one just over a month ago), and he just drove nearly six hours, preached the weekend, then drove nearly six hours home. THAT is the old breed!
And...he can still preach like a house afire!

Greetings, Brother!
Jon told me I needed to come hear the original so I could realize where you get it from!
I would have loved to hear your dad! He certainly doesn't appear to be 81. You can tell him that I said he sure looks good for his age and having to put up with you!  They sure don't make them like the "old breed" anymore. Sacrifice is no longer synonymous with ministry and we, the church, are poorer for it.

I say good for them, especially if a rich board member is picking up the tab.

I bet it is kinda hard to keep a train of thought running when people are constantly dousing you with water.....I ain't 81, and sometimes I can't do that!

A pastor and an evangelist should have time to be together. I don't think I'm understanding what you are asking here Elder.

I think you're teasing.
I know my Dad would usually take evangelists and their wives out, and maybe take them to local attractions...especially if they had kids. Or, we would have them over to our home for dinner and dessert and play games.

Lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Old time revival fasting for days. NOT eating at those fancy chinese places.
No wonder we can't see a move of God.
