As far as I know we get along with everyone. But I guess I must live in a bubble.

All I can say IF anyone doesn't get along with us, it isn't our pastors leading, it would have to be the others.

I disagree. Certainly there are many aspects of his life and ministry that would be private- in fact most things would probably be. But affiliating and disaffiliating a church, especially at a time like this, is news for public consumption.

But wouldn't it be the business of that local church? News maybe, but not the business of anyone else?

Well IF we are all one family and one of our brothers is moving away, don't you think the "family" wants to know?

Yes, that's news. But it's not for us to decide if the move was good or bad. That's their business.

Yes, but the purpose of sharing news is so that (hopefully!) wisdom can grow among us. By looking at the experiences of others we can learn from them. That's why you see the give and take, back and forth about what he did.

It's not like any of us imagine that we can (or should) go down to Pasadena and "fix" the situation. We're just trying to put ourselves in his shoes and put him in ours. Everybody's situation is a little bit different so the lessons learned (or not!) will all be a little different.

I'm getting scared again cause I think we'll have to agree on that.

Hey want to borrow my 20x80s. They bring things in real close, might see a bear or something.

It is no one here business what Brother WM and his church does. It is their business and no one else's. Brother WM could probably care less what people here think.
