I'm hearing GDM name in lots of circles. I know he's the first alternate for the Ex Committee right now. I know he's loved through out the COG world. I'm hearing his name. I really thought it was going to be John Childers on the committee but McGuire is gaining traction. He's loved in TN and the Gen. Assembly is in TN. Might be interesting. The camp meeting circuit will help decide between John Childers, Tom Madden, Kevin Wallace and Dennis McGuire. The Committee might just well beHILLCULPEPPERSTEPHENSPROPES

nope.

Im not hearing Mcguire either, but lets be careful with words like never.Also, when you say you're talking to COG folks every day, how many people are you saying? If a COG preacher goes all day only talking to his wife and the clerk , then he could technically say he only talks to COG people but thats a bit of a misrepresentation.Personally, I talk to somewhere between 75-100 COG folks almost every day. Is this number consistent with what you're describing?

I could see some momentum building for McGuire.He panders to small church pastors by talking the old time COG language. He knows that pastors of churches with less than 125 people is the strength of the voting constituency at the GA. There's a pretty solid niche of pastors in the McGuire sweet spot. Those who serve in churches of about 85-200 in attendance. If you listen, that's who DM spends most of his time with.

I would go crazy if I talked to that many COG people every day. You're a stronger man than me !

Those 75 people who talk to April are.

Re: Also,

I didn't see any disdain from Aprilmay for the pastors, just for someone who would pander to them.Just like presidential candidates pander to evangelicals. Nothing wrong with being evangelical, but pander to them can be insincere political posturing.
