This is my new article called "Women Pastors, In Control and Out of Order." I knew this would be controversial but I thought this was an issue that needed to be discussed like many other tabu issues that confront the church.  Please read the article with an open mind to scripture.  If you are a woman and you are offended, let me refer you to the One who inspired it.  Here is the link to the article.  http://tinyurl.com/yhhyncy

        

        

        

        

        

Ephesians 4:8-9 Salvation cannot be earned

        

Matthew 4:19 mini sermon (following Christ)

        

All I can say is I am glad the Lord is in the bussiness of forgiveness and second chances. The Philadelphia Eagles signed Mike Vick to a 2 year deal. There was no doubt in my mind whether or not a team would sign him. The question always was, is there 32 Qb's in the NFL better than Vick? I don't think so! This is just a temp job while he gets back in NFL shape and game speed. I hope he learned his lesson because its football season, and its time to move on.

        

I am amazed at all the gossip that goes on, in and outside the church community about what kind of lifestyle the pastor is living off of the church's money. The public is watching to see what kind of steward we are with our blessings. If we are prosperous, then we should not only set the example of how to spend it, but how to conduct ourselves with it. I will stand up and say that the doctrine of holiness is far more appropriate than the doctrine of prosperity now.  Judge for yourself,  tell me what you think.
