TRUE STORY!
You pastor a small church in the country. After a couple of years you have about a dozen relatives come to help you 'build' the church. After several years you have grown that thing from 80 to 20. Because of the backslidden heathen people in the area who just don't want a bible believing bible preaching soul-winning (?) KJV only church you take a job to help with the income. After 2 weeks you quit because it interferes with your 'pastoral duties'. BTW, my dad has been in and out of the hospital several times and his pastor did not come to visit etc. He says he kind of forgot. But, he is a fundamentalist. Save us from these kinds of people!!
I'm sorry, but I'm not getting it. What has the country preacher who worked a job have to do with your dad (sorry to hear about that) and his pastor not visiting him? Was his pastor working a second job?
Try to keep up. No, he does not work a second job. He has a weekly attendance of about 20. He got a job and quit because it interfered with his pastoral duties. What duties are those, do you ask? I don't know. My parents are almost 80 and can't attend anymore and don't give a pile of money anymore. So, I guess when you get to that point, you are dispensable. However, if there is snow to clear etc. he will come to their house because they pay him for that.
