The
Preacher and the Music Director
There was a church
where the preacher and the minister of music were
not getting along. As time went by this began to
spill over into the worship service. The first week
the preacher preached on commitment and how we all
should dedicate ourselves to the service of God.
The music director lead the song "I Shall not be
Moved."
The second week the
preacher preached on tithing and how we all should
gladly give to the work of the Lord. The director
lead the song "Jesus Paid it All."
The third week the
preacher preached on gossiping and how we should
all watch our tongues. The music director led the
song "I Love to Tell the Story."
With all this going
on, the preacher became very disgusted over the
situation and the following Sunday told the
congregation that he was considering resigning. The
musician lead the song "Oh Why Not Tonight?" As it
came to pass, the preacher did indeed resign. The
next week he informed the church that it was Jesus
who led him there and it was Jesus that was taking
him away. The music leader lead the song "What a
Friend We Have in Jesus."
