I had a lady come to me once and said "Pastor I am leaving this is not a perfect church and I am looking for the perfect church." I said well that is true the pastor is not perfect and neither is the church. But do me two favors when you find the perfect church call me I want to see it and secondly when you find it do NOT join for then it would cease from being perfect.

Some churches APPEAR to be more perfect if you limit your attendance to say one or twice a month!

I heard Billy Davis say something once that struck me funny.

A family moved to his city, and wanted to attend his church. He met with them, and they started telling him how badly they had been hurt by a pastor, and that he would have to be patient with them and understand that they had a hard time trusting the ministry because of their experiences.

He listened politely until they had finished their soliloquy, and then told them, "That's fine. i totally understand where you are coming from. I've seen a few bad saints come through here who have hurt me, so it's going to take while for me to develop confidence and trust in you too, so we'll just work on this together."

definitely sounds like an overbearing pastor who would enjoty lording.

Thanks for the heads up
