Changing Preachers

Pastors in the United Methodist Church have it surprisingly great in our opinion.

Most are dedicated, hardlaboring, plus are firm believers in carrying out the toil of John Wesley, who founded the Methodist Movement in the 1780s.

They get paid a good salary, live in the church’s parsonage for free, plus have a liberal expense budget. The terrible thing is that they can be moved at the whim of the congregation or as assigned by the higher-ups in the local districts. A normal “run” for a pastor is between two to five years with a lot of consideration given to the pastor’s family situation. My observance as a member of the congregation is that as soon as the pastor begins to assume “comfortable” in the task plus with the elders of the church, they soon transfer on. In certain ways, our Heating, Ventilation plus A/C method is like a United Methodist minister. The minister provides spiritual comfort while the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C provides atmospheric comfort. Ministers often toil numerous days a month just like our Heating, Ventilation plus A/C system, however when our pastor needs a break, he will go on a weekend retreat. All our Heating, Ventilation plus A/C needs are a few days off when the weather is mild or a few minutes as it gets a “revival” by a qualified Heating, Ventilation plus A/C professional with a twice-yearly cleaning plus repair tune-up. Our congregation is not that content with our modern minister. She began to spout too much warm air while in his Monday sermons, plus he made some bizarre sounds when he tried to sing along with the choir. My Heating, Ventilation plus A/C also began to blow warm air while in Summer plus the sounds it made were far from harmonious. I may have to replace our Heating, Ventilation plus A/C soon plus I hope the church does the same thing with her.
