‘The music is like a rock concert,’ Jane said. ‘The church has seating for ten thousand people,’ Jane continued. ‘Recently, the President of the United States visited, and there was only a standing room,’ Jane exulted.

‘Does the church have a ministry for the poor,’ Chet asked? ‘When I drive by the parking lot I see a lot of luxury automobiles,’ Chet commented. ‘I have some young friends who are poor and enthralled with the church…they work for free cleaning, ushering and doing labor for the facility,’ Chet said. Their work is all donated and they work long hours,’ Chet observed.

‘The congregants who do not have money work off their donations to the church through volunteer labor,’ Jane said. ‘The pastor preaches that the members should work joyfully unto the Lord,’ Jane said with a serious look. ‘Each member has to submit their financial records to the Board of Elders to determine their donation,’ Jane said quizzically.
‘I attended a service at the church and noticed the majority of the faces were white,’ Billy B said. ‘There was a proclamation of the church’s love for Israel, but no Jews,’ Billy B continued. ‘After the great music was a sermon focused on getting rich by serving Jesus,’ Billy B said sadly.
‘My friend Jose and his family attended and the usher told them that they did not welcome illegal immigrants,’ Chet said. ‘Jose and his family are citizens of the United States,’ Chet said with a tear in his eye.
‘Join me on a walk through the woods,’ Preacher said with a wide smile. ‘You are like me, your pockets are empty and your hearts are full,’ Preacher noted. ‘Notice the beauty of God’s Creation,’ Preacher admonished. ‘If some do not like the color of your skin we are family…they do not like mine either,’ Preacher smiled.
