The Pastor and The Choir Director

Church feuds are not  uncommon. But when a pastor and the choir director get into it, stand aside.

One week, our pastor decided to press his position by preaching on  commitment, and how we should dedicate ourselves to service. That Sunday, the choir director led the choir in singing I shall not be moved.

The next Sunday, the pastor preached on giving and how we should give gladly to the work of the Lord. The choir director then led the song, ‘Jesus paid it all’.

The next Sunday, the Pastor preached on gossiping and how we should watch our tongue. The hymn was ‘I love to tell the story’.

The Pastor became disgusted with the situation, and the next Sunday he told the congregation he was resigning. The choir then sang ‘Oh, Why not Tonight’.

After the Pastor resigned the next week, he preached his last sermon at the church telling the congregation that Jesus had led him there and Jesus was taking him away. The choir sang, ‘What a friend we have in Jesus.’

Happy new week everyone
