Ladies I know I should post this in special pray but please just pray for God to diffuse a situation that has suddenly arose today that has turned into a violent storm with our board. One particular memember of the church is a feather ruffler and has ruffled the feathers of a board member that is like a stick of dynamite that is ready to blow up at all times (not an exaggeration). THe situation is the exact type of situation that abruptly removed the previous pastor of our church. My husband is meeting with board members right now and honestly the situation is like feeing hungry lions. We are open to God moving us if that be His will but we don't feel that we are suppose to be going anywhere right now. Thanks ladies!

The storm is deminished! God gets the glory. Just pray God continues to minister to these men. There are a lot of hurts that need to be over come and as we give out pray they receive.
thanks ladies

Been there, done that (yes, as a staff pastor, sadly!) - glad everything went well!!
Anyone else tired of the constant DRAMA?!?!? I want to say to people what my mom used to say to my brother and me when we would argue incessantly: "IF YOU DON'T STOP FIGHTING, I'M GOING TO KNOCK YOUR HEADS TOGETHER!!!" Is there a polite way to say this to people without getting ourselves fired, lol?!?!?!?
Right. Come the Pastoring Partners website and vent. Okay, carry on, then...
I like both quotes! I am so glad things diffused. Its been hard we feel like we are always walking on egg shells around this certain person. It makes it hard to have a genuine love for him and his wife. So critical and judgemental.
Puppet - I am tired of the drama all the time. I have enough to think about and I would say worry about but God is really teaching me to release it and let go. I personally do not need the drama from church. I am beginning to realize I have to stay away from the negative people in the church. Which is hard to do bring the children's pastor/pastors wife!
ugh! I do hav eto say I am looking forward to the Unstoppable Conference! Hope you all get to go too! I am believing for a mighty move of God there!

Ladies, I full well understand what you are talking about. And I can't stand it either! Sometimes I think I can't stand it anymore but God gives me more grace when I need it.
I am praying for all of us in our churches, that the pettiness would diminish and the spirit of the Lord would be raised up in a mighty way.
