Catapult Worthy

I don't want to be catapulted, but I probably deserve it. Praying for the best for my church and the Church.

There's a conversation happening on Twitter between @reachjulieroys, a grace-filled, well-respected, truthful Christian and @jamesmacdonald. The fact that Julie responded is the only reason most of us know that James is still alive and believes himself relevant.

Harvest members should call Greg Bradshaw and ask to see the finances. When asked for their reason it should simply be "to see whether you live up to your word." No other reason should be given or necessary.

If the current HBC elders rightly stepped down due to their mistake in making that video, who would be there to step up?

@ChrisHohnholz @piratechristian c'mon y'all, it's not like he embezzled or cheated on his wife. That's all that matters.

@piratechristian Does “church discipline” even mean anything anymore? Amazing what’s deemed within the boundaries of 1Tim 3:1-2 nowadays.

The church's obsession with celebrity pastors is causing it to turn a blind eye to what scripture says about who is qualified to be a pastor

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

Hey @HarvestBible1, remember when following Scriptures like the Biblical qualifications for elders was important?

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

James MacDonald had a bad enough reputation to drive 3000 people to leave their (often long-time) church and church family.

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

Elders should not ask if a leader has reconciled/apologized, but whether the number or severity of his mistakes give him a bad reputation.

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

Is there anything besides marital unfaithfulness or embezzlement that would be a disqualifier for a celebrity pastor?

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

@HarvestBible1 irony

[Catapult Worthy @catapultworthy]

How bad does your reputation have to be to disqualify you from leadership at @HarvestBible1?

@JMacTruth (ironically also anonymous finger-pointer) James admitted the elder video was untrue. Avoid slander by saying nothing or truth.
