Why all the secrecy about candidate? Why is the GA not going to discuss and approve new GO (I must have missed that change)? Have the position been vacant long enough that no one cares who fills it? Just wondering.o

COGOP connection with events. If I remember correctly: I was at West Virginia COGOP youth camp when Nixon resigned. I was at COGOP General Assembly when Elvis died. Remember watching the news in our motel room in Chattanooga. I was at COGOP General Assembly when WV upset Oklahoma in the first game o...

Funniest moment I've ever seen was on MNF in the 70's when Gifford,Cosell and Meredith were broadcasting. A streaker broke loose from the crowd and ran down the middle of the field totally disrupting the game. Play was stopped for several minutes before they could corral the exhibitionist. Gifford a...

Good man and a great friend. We love the Vickers deeply. Praying for their family and wishing them all the best.
Love from Ron & Pamela Martin

PastorP, I read that article a few days ago. What I thought was so provactive about the whole thing was their claim that "The Holy Ghost has called us to "GATHER AROUND ME....." and He will take care of us. This is our answer, let us return unto the Lord and gather around Him as we co...

At least one of the 32 would be the pastor. He would be the last one out because he would have to make sure the toilets had been flushed, no water was left running, all the un-used bulletins and trash left on the pews was picked up, the thermostat adjusted properly and all the lights turned off. Upo...

Bro. Chance is a nice man, perhaps, still clinging to the past. There is no church in Centreville (closest would be Eoline). I have not seen him in years so I didn't think he was still with the church. He is currently not pastoring nor holding an official position with the church in AL so his websit...

Pastor Rob said, The guy's from WV he can't be all bad!! Rob, I think Charles Manson grew up in WV, so I'm not sure we can include everyone in our family. :lol: Of course, I did read where his one sole happy moment in life came when his WV aunt hugged him. Even the hardest of sinners are melted by t...

Rob, I've been having fun with all my Bama fans in Tuscaloosa telling them if Nick wins the NC, he's heading to greener pastures. Don't know if that's the case, but it sure is fun to watch the look on their faces when they think his NC wins could be 1 and done. They are ready, now, to erect his stat...

Sorry I can't stay and play anymore guys. I'm headed to W. Helena, AK to do a funeral for the grandmother of a friend of my wife. The family has no church affiliation and are not acquainted with any other ministers but me. It was an honor to be asked to preside over the memorial service. The drive w...

darylscook wrote, Mountie, don't get me wrong, I am sure there are many SO that consider and work with the local church and pastor. But, Sevenson is right. The SO appoints them. While the Assembly has passed what you quoted, the amount of consultation is not specified. A phone call to the pastor and...

stevenson wrote: stand by my qoute. It was told to me that it is up to the SO and that it is only suggested that a SO consult with the church & pastor. He does not have to. And I will also stand by that! And the person who told me works at General Headquarters. I'll stand by my original statemen...

One more manual quote, The Overseer's Appointive Duties are: 1. To appoint pastors in consultation with the local church and minister. (Section H, Line 1, p. 339). If the pastor and church have not been included in the appointment process it could be that the overseer, pastor and local church are no...

Pastor Rob wrote: was mild to say the least, I wanted to do more than object or protest, I wanted to really tell you a lot of other things, but didn't want to get kicked out of Jude2. West Virginian's have not use and do not like to be compared to Virginian's. Preach on my Brother, preach on. I just...

Full Quiver wrote, how would CoGoP go about an overall apology? Would such really make a difference? Would people say oh that church that offended me in the 60's says they are sorry now. It would have to be something that is genuine and from the heart. Not "politically correct" bull. I've ...
