Sad, very sad. Hopefully the situation was discovered early enough that no irreparable damage was done. God is good.

What a testimony though, to grow a church to that size, that part is wonderful.

But is pastoring that size church and congregation isolating a pastor from real life? Most pastors know the enjoyment of fellowship with 'an average' of your church. It seems that would be nearly impossible with a church that size.

It seems we have lost TOO many mega church pastors in all denominations. Embarassed

Praying for Pastor Noble and his family. I know He is passionate about people coming into the kingdom. But once again we are reminded that we are all vulnerable to temptation and can easily begin to find comfort in things other than Christ.

I certainly appreciate the leaders of the church taking a stand and not hiding this. Sin's power is weakened significantly when brought into the light. Believing for healing and restoration for Perry, his family and the church!

Yet, nothing is ever said when folks slip into becoming obese. Such a double standard. Let's take care of our bodies, people! Don't abuse your bodies in any way, regardless of how it happens.

It's sad, but this might be the best thing for him. His relationship with God is more important than his ministry. As a former alcoholic, I see a pattern with Perry that's disturbing. Years ago, someone posted a sermon (here on Acts) that he preached about alcohol. Basically, it was a sermon on moderate consumption. His public statement is telling as well. He is still in denial.

Do I believe the bible prohibits alcohol explicitly ? No. But when you've just been fired for being an alcoholic (believe me, you can rest assured this was not an isolated incident ), the last thing you need to do is celebrate your Christian liberty to drink. I've been there. He hasn't come to reality yet.

If I remember correctly, Gwen Shamblin was essentially saying you can't go to heaven if you're fat.

So should we abstain from sex to avoid ever falling into sexual sin?
