I can't stand him. I tried to watch his press conference yesterday, but his inauthenticity and slickness made me so edgy, I had to switch to a rerun of "Project Runway." That Heidi Klum is adorable.<BR/><BR/>xxxxxxxSara Conwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03851298365426434254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21233258.post-1138385179392275452006-01-27T13:06:00.000-05:002006-01-27T13:06:00.000-05:00The problem for many of us when we're in the pulpi...The problem for many of us when we're in the pulpit is we're afraid to offend people out in the pews.<BR/><BR/>A lot of ELCA clergy are liberal leaning democrats. A lot of our parishioners are middle of the road republicans. We agree on a lot of things, but there are some hot topics that we're afraid to touch.<BR/><BR/>The Sunday after the ELCA assembly this summer I supply preached. It was much easier to say what I thought because I knew that my security was not tied to those people in any way. <BR/><BR/>Sadly, I did not always feel the ability to be so honest when I was serving a parish on a weekly basis. I know it's not right, but it's true. And face it, we've read enough about the OT prophets to know that they probably had a tough time supporting a family and paying the mortgage.RevHRodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16487849573949444379noreply@blogger.com
