I met Dr. Tom Whatley, currently interim pastor at First Baptist Church in Tuscumbia,   this evening.  He made a great comment about country churches.  He said that when he was in seminary, when a nice Mayflower moving truck with professional movers  came to take a new graduate to a church he would tell everyone to pray for the new preacher, that he was in for a rough time.  When a young minister going to their first call was picked up with somebody in an old cattle trailer covered in hay and manure he would say don’t worry about him, he’s going to be alright.

Amen
