The Return of SPM

Yesterday our new Interim Associate shared with me an e-mail she had received from
Sweeping Proclamation Man in which he lamented that, "last summer Pastor Rebel informed me that she never intended to speak with me about Adult Education ever again."

WTF!!!!!! Last summer SPM and his wife invited me for yet another pre Adult Education Committee meeting lunch to push their agenda for Adult Ed and inform me how the program as it is currently organized is ruining our congregation, (and quite possibly Western Civilization as we know it.) I politely declined, saying I thought it would be much more fruitful to discuss these issues with the whole committee.

This stuff, as Anne Lamott writes, must make Jesus want to drink gin straight from the cat dish.

How are your favorite passive aggressive members doing today???

Well you've been to my place and seen what shenanigans they're up to.

Jesus. Gin. Cat dish. Indeed.

I'm sorry - did you mean to ask about my passive aggressive family members, or church members?

They are legion. Call up Jesus and pour the gin.

Oh, yeah. Gin anyone?

That is the obvious solution.

Hey, I think its good news that he thinks you won't meet with him. You can feel all self-righteous that you didn't say that. And he can avoid you cause you hate him.

It all works out, right?

There's gin in the catdish? For real? That sure explains a lot.

Outta gin. How about vodka?

ROFLOL! Ah, it really isn't so funny, but the post was. I have no big ideas, just sympathy.

Been there. Done that. However, right now, in my present charge, all is well.
