Though this doesnt apply to me.... you can get a pretty good idea of where someone is heading by looking at where they went.
One church west of here had produced many missionaries and pastors (still active to this day, some 25 years later) and then the pastor felt called to plant a church somewhere else.
They brought in some guy from a non-denom school and though he played fair a good while, eventually, he became so flimsy. I went to that church no less than 10 times... one of the most dry preachers i ever encountered. in time, the church went way down, lost probably 80% of the congregation, then sold out to some business.
Sad. I guess that wasnt a takeover..the guy just did not show where he was heading until he was there for 15 years.
