It sucks though. Last year we had a new junior pastor. He was the coolest man I'd met in my life. He had a Phd and a buttload of other degrees, but he was a dude. He loved heavy metal, and hard rock. (We listened to Velvet Revolver together!) He also played guitar and used to be in a band-stuff like Satch and Vai. His band was kicked out of a club for getting the crowd too riled up.

Anyways, unfortunatly after 8 months, He went to teach at BIOLA in LA. Definately miss him.

yeah, I had a youth pastor kinda like that. he played guitar, though he only had an acoustic. man, he so wanted an electric so bad. but he said that if he was going to get an electric, he wanted to get the best so he wouldn't need to buy another one 6 months down the road.. I tried to tell him otherwise, but he didn't listen of course. for a while he wanted a gibson les paul, then he wanted some parker fly thing, then his most recent fascination was with carvin. anyway, this dude was into metal too. we listened to Pantera, Norma Jean, and Extol together!

then, not more then 2 or 3 months ago, my church decides that they need to make some budget cuts. so they "let go" a few people. this pastor being one of them. I miss him like crazy.
