Thank you, Brother. I appreciate the referral. I know KA from back in my uc days, so, as soon as I saw it was him I kinda figured what would happen next. At least he's quit closing his eyes when he's in front of a crowd of people. hehehehehe. I am sure he's a good pastor for those that either like or need to have that kind of control put over them, but that's just not anything I want to go back to. Too bad you aren't closer to me 'cause I'd love to come give you a hard time sometime, or at least a living example of something you could preach against.

That would only make you bubbly. Try Listerine. LOL

It'd only make you burp bubbles... and it might make kids like you more because of it... and then you'd be happy because everyone's happy when they're making kids smile... and your life would improve and your outlook would improve because you'd be happier... and you'd no longer be bitter...


so go ahead and drink the bubble maker stuff...

You are welcome and thank you!

Being ahead of me and having God-given authority over me doesn't mean they're superior to me. We are all one in Christ Jesus. But, no, I don't hold them to a higher standard (though from what I read of scripture, God does; but it's His place to do that, not mine). I don't excuse behavior in myself that I won't excuse in them.
