Coop... If the District Superintendant has the Organizational Authority to do this and it's written in the By-laws or Rules then it's not an abuse of power it's enforcing what the Org Believes...
and he's just doing what he was elected to do... lead
Whether we agree or disagree... He has the if he has the authority to do it... then he is just doing his job.. right or wrong...
That's why these elected positions do make such a difference. He has the power to enforce a lot of things very few live by any more.
The sad thing about this case is, all it will accomplish is driving one more church out the door. He has absolutly no chance of keeping the church and outsting this pastor.
When they show up, i suspect it will be an extremely fridged reception. Not much chance of the DS actually having any impact.
I suppose it will serve some sort of message to the rest of the district. I just dont really know what the message is going to be?
"you guys better tighten up"
or
"you guys need to vote me out"
