So many kings
re: so many kings
Yep, a friend of ours rented that video about Queen Esther that TBN produced called One Night with the King. The cashier asked him if it was about Elvis.
Might I respond with another question? Are you askin whether or not Homer’s elevator went all the way to the top floor? Or, are ya askin whether or not a few bales a hay fell off his wagon? Or, are ya wonderin whether or not all his neurons was firin in sync?
I don’t remember if he thought he was King, but he was so well known from running for President that his death was even reported on national news! (I was raised COGOP). I think he had issues.
I realize Homer was AJ’s son and MA’s brother, but I’m surprised COG people still remember him! Especially people still alive I’m not even sure a lot of COGOP people would remember. I suspect I remember him more because my Dad knew him and was a pastor in the early 1940’s in Tennessee. My dad was well known in the COGOP’s and in a meeting I had in HQ once, MA told me what a great man my dad was. I can’t remember if my dad knew Homer personally or not. If my parent’s had not been so old when I was born, I’m not even sure I would have hardly known who he was. He wasn’t exactly a shinning example in the COGOP.
hmmmm. I ain’t no shrink mam
In Pikeville, they probly call it a few bricks shy of a load.I guess I was wondering if it was just an illustration, you know the way Schambach had a casket in one of his services and had a man illustrating the resurrection, or if it was a matter of him bein a little teched an all.
