| Post subject: | Cojak: Just a word from a Pastor |
| From the pew: Good advice.In all my years of attending the COG, I am thankful for the few exhausted pastors and retired pastors that have attended the churches I attended. If my pastor had any animosity toward them, we members did not know it.And if I or most others had felt any push to take the church, we would have informed the rogue that the pastors slot was filled.One retired pastor was attending a Baptist church in our area for just that reason he had felt unwelcome at a couple COG he attended. I invited him to our church. He never came but he did have the invite. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| I agree. When we resigned South Aurora, we went to Indian Trail. Pastor Ken poured into us, used us, and had me preach occasionally. It was a time of healing for us The World As I See Itworldjeffreysees.blogspot.com/Revuriah's Facebookwww.facebook.com/people/Jeff-Richard/1226257444Jeffrey David Richard's Myspace Musicwww.myspace.com/547856946 |

| Post subject: | FG Minister: Every Former Pastor I have Pastored |
| has caused me nothing but grief. Sorry to break the chain of good will here. For example, I had a retired A/G pastor who came to my office unannounced every Monday morning to discuss my sermon. He stayed for 1-2 hours pointing out what other points I could have made. He would then invite me to his house every Wednesday to discuss the Bible, church issues, and other such stuff. I would stay another 1-2 hours. I only tolerated this because he was a retired pastor. He critiqued and picked at everything I did. After about two years of this, I finally told him in as nice a way as I could -- Look, I have twice the experience as a pastor as you do and where you have a bachelor's degree, I have earned a bachelor's, two Master's and a doctorate. This church is growing and people seem to be responding well to my ministry. I don't mean to be rude, but I need you to let me pastor this church. |

| I am truly sorry to hear this. We all have our stories of bad experiences with others. Honestly, I was going to give some examples of how Pastors had treated me and my family when we had visited their church, but I thought why? Why bring up the ignorance of a few Pastors when God has blessed us with being with a few good ones. |
