    A Minister! I like my Ministers to preach fire and brimstone, I wanna be told I am an abomination to Christ and will burn in Hell and that Christ died on the cross to save my miserable and worthless soul and to call out sinners in the hands of an angry God.
    Hellfire and damnation will follow those who do the devils work, that kind of thing.
    I always thought the church lost numbers by telling us how good we were, the church should not make you feel good about yourself.
    A former police officer you say, I’m assuming she lawfully carried a fire arm and I’m also sure people do not diminish her in anyway because of it, wouldn’t you agree.
