@Svigel It seems doctrines as the scriptures chosen for canon were chosen (and written) in order to fit the doctrine... somewhat

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@mrdavidrowe Yes. In Kenya. When they found out I am a pastor they told me I would preach. They gave me an interpreter. It was a very interesting experience.

@dl_johnston Mmmmaybe - or is it that they may think Jesus is of ultimate importance... just not church. Church fails them. They see the mess we are in.

@nigutb @MurphyAJC @PoliticsGPB Canceled? No! Say it isn't so!

@daveag @josephpalmer @herevrush Yes. You know who my SP was, though, and at the time he believed his notion was above our BOD. My DS was no help, either.

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@josephpalmer @herevrush I'm sorry this happened to you and your family

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@BlairTStowe @herevrush Really good point

@LauraHa94328082 @mcoleyyy That would involve women in the SBC to disagree with women ordination. Most I know believe women should not be pastors. Crazy, I know

Once again, literacy wins #ngac23

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@jasonsansbury Exactly

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

Are we not risking contempt by discussing? #ngac23

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@MartzMimic @JMichaelBrewer Nevertheless, integrity would tell them they should only be requesting to leave if they disagree with the current stance of the BOD.

@sdaughtry_ Good seeing you today

@ConnectNGUMC is there a hash tag for Annual Conference?

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@tovvnshend @DrSampler @TheVarsity1928 I love it - the onion rings and frozen orange especially

@philipnation "Forty days and Ninevah will be overthrown."

Well... it's five words in Hebrew. Pretty powerful sermon, I'm told.

[Sam Halverson @samiam2]

@erichoke Good question. The answer is usually... "Whatever we can sucker...er...talk them into."
