Pastor prior to me was terminated (I noticed a pattern at this point). Since 1953, 5 of 7 pastors were forced to resign… not including support staff. God grew the church from 315 to 650. Giving was in the black for the first time in years, for 9 straight years. Built $3.2mm building. Was pressured to resign because of power struggle in the leadership. I made mistakes that hindered my ability to minister (No heresy, immorality, or unlawful reasons).
