Pastor Vacate
July 20th, 2005 by AjIíve been pondering the idea of writing a book . . . it might be an allegory, it might be a novel, it might be a short story or a poem or a rambling dialogue.
What would it look like if the pastors disappeared? Just gone . . . off the face of the earth.
ñ would more step in to fill their shoes, doing things exactly the same?
ñ if they did things the same, would it be because these things are right/authentic, or would they feel like theyíre faking it? Keeping up appearances?
ñ would something completely different emerge?
ñ would people split between the norm and the new?
ñ would people feel free to engage in something new, a sort of blank slate?
Would people step up, or would church just fade away . . . or at least, the church as we know it?
