I meant to say I did not remember your jacket fitting so loosely. :>) Blessings, Tim Brother Jon,

I am sorry if our Brother JasonK implied something other than what was asked. He corrected himself so I take him at his word. How do you like the picture. I did not know that you were taller than Chuck Norris. Also, I nearly did not recognize you in the picture. I do not remember your shirt fitting so loosely. :>) Blessings, Tim Brother Jon,

At least that's what I gathered from Tim's question in what he wanted me to answer. CB - my condolences on knowing Tim Williams. :-) For the record, in the question relating to wayward PK’s, I was speaking of PK’s who’d left the nest.

Thanks for clearing up that you were speaking in general. I have met brother Jon and he is the epitome of God's redeeming love. Brother CB, If you were having hallucinations about me, it must have been a nightmare. :>) Brother Tone, We all try to raise our children in the nurture of our Lord and trust God with the outcome. Good word from you. Brother Chris, Be careful about ragging Brother CB. :>) Blessings, Tim Brother Jasonk,

Brother CB,

If you were having hallucinations about me, it must have been a nightmare. :>)

Brother Tone,

We all try to raise our children in the nurture of our Lord and trust God with the outcome. Good word from you.

Brother Chris,

Be careful about ragging Brother CB. :>)

Maybe I say some of this because I have addressed the issue of which you speak and very directly. You are right about people "picking and choosing" relating to pastoral qualifications. cb Chris,

They are the best kind of questions to ask, because you tend to get a reaction based on how a person really feels, rather than how they think you want them to answer. I was not referring to Jerry Vines, or anyone in his family, or anyone else in particular. I was asking a general question. What I was really driving at, I guess, is that we have a tendency to pick and choose which pastoral qualifications we want to enforce. How many pastors are out there with horrible credit, for example? But no one ever addresses that issue, because it is far too easy to ignore it. And how many pastors have children (at home) who are openly rebellious? Or whose wives are gossips? It seems that the only admonition we are really interested in following from 1 Tim 3 is the husband of one wife, and no one can agree on how that should be interpreted. I ask not because I have issues, but because I really would like to know :>) Tone, maybe he was referring to PKs who have already left the nest. That's not what I heard, but it certainly could have been what he was talking about. Either way, you're right. I doubt that anyone would hold a pastor responsible for how their adult children behave. Thank you, by the way, for your kind comments about my daughter's 18th birthday. She is a beautiful child, my youngest. I could not be more proud of her, and my other two daughters, as well as my stepkids. CB,
