1 /5 Karl Edwards: This church has some amazing people; however, ir is severely lacking in leadership. While searching for a permanent preacher, they received one, but ran him off within a month. With a severely low memberahip for such a large church, they recently "excommunicated" a lady because she chose to split her worship time with another church. She will be better off serving her Father through a church family that is more gracious and tolerant than First Methodist. Moreover, they fired their secretary just a couple of weeks before the holidays, a secretary that was both loyal and efficient in her job. Basically, if you do not fit in with the leaderships narcissistic, misguided ideology, you will be asked to leave.
