Sometimes it’s better late than never to post something on here.  The fact of the matter is I’m upset a few “Christians” in the United States.  Why you ask?  I’ll tell you why.

I enjoy reading blogs.  Most of you know that.  I get a lot of leadership insights from a lot of great people.  One blog I enjoy reading is “Monday Morning Insight”.  They always have intriguing articles and keep up with churches around the country.  This past Monday morning (June 8 ) I was reading and found out about the Gary Lamb situation.  If you don’t know what happened check out his blog post here. 

Let me share a few thoughts of my own.  I am very interested in planting a church some day and Gary’s blog was a good outlet with good ideas about church planting.  I don’t know Gary personally and have never met him.  I also do not know all of the details about the affair.

What I do know is that there are a lot of Christians beating the snot out of Gary verbally on there blogs and so forth.  Not just random people, but PASTORS!  Please understand me, I am totally against affairs, sexual immorality, etc., but people called by the men of God are bashing him with words.  We of all people should know that we should be praying for him and especially his family as we go through this. 

From what I understood from his blog posts, his church was doing really well.  It seems like everytime a church is doing well, seeing people come to Christ, bapitzing them, etc., people are always looking at ways to tear them down.

Folks, what ever happened to church serving one purpose.  I understand we have denominations, but why do we have to tear a brother down like this?  I’m not condoning what he did, but I’m also not tearing anyone down.

I’m tired of so called “pastors” tearing other pastors down because they doing great things!  Buck up guys!  Stop acting like junior-highers and pray for the guy instead of tearing them down. 

We all know that when great things are happening when God is in the picture, the enemy hates it and will do anything he can to destroy it! 

So why not start today?  I ask, pray, even beg of those who have slandered against Gary and his ministry that you would ask God for forgiveness and that you start praying and stop ripping him apart with your words!
