yeah.. we don't have money for a youth pastor.. but we have money to go send like 15 people to nicaragua to preach to the people there for a few weeks.. I think my church needs to get it's priorities straight.

plus, this pastor had just had, like 2 months prior, his first baby. and he was desperately trying to get his house remodeled. I thought churches were about caring for your fellow christian? they could've fired anyone else. even one of our TWO main pastors (yes, we have TWO where most churches have one). but of course not! let's leave the high school kids to fend for themselves. I mean, we have a couple volunteer leaders. but they're just not the same, you know what I mean?
