LIAR LIAR
Sometimes, a man will sacrifice truth just to save face, no matter how thick. One of the members of his congregation who happens to be a friend of mine sent me a text message asking if it was true what their pastor was saying that he resigned from his previous church, and was not fired. I promptly replied by saying that the road to hell is paved with a lot of good PRETENTIONS.
Okay, if he says so. And on that note, this story is for him:
A minister, having served the same church for a few years decided to leave to take a similar position in another church.
Without telling anyone he had made his decision or writing a letter to the congregation, he waited until Sunday to announce his resignation in church.
When he spoke to the congregation, he said, "The same Jesus that called me to this church a few years ago has now called upon me to leave and serve another church."
Just then, the choir and the congregation all stood and sang, "What a friend we have in Jesus ..."
