Randy What comes to my mind is this Pride cometh before the fall
IMO a spiritual leader should lead by example, and put their congregation before themself
Everyone has failings, and pride is one of the seven deadly sins for a reason. I do feel for you and hope your congregation can get through this. I believe your faith and your church is the center of your congregation and not your pastor With 22 members you probably feel this more so then a large congregation would, I have faith that you will make the right choices
The stripes of a tiger don't wash away.
Be a man of steel not clay
