Strawberry Letter: Sexing The Pastor

Sexing The Pastor

It takes a special kind of foul for a woman to sleep with her pastor. He's supposed to be a Godly man tasked with leading his congregation to Christ, and he breaks up a happy home. I think there was a story a couple years ago where a pastor was murdered for sleeping with a married woman, so I knew this letter was familiar. Pastors are flawed, yes; but shouldn't a pastor lead by example in Godly conduct? If she tells “on the pastor", she needs to tell on herself because it takes two. He knew what was going on, and so did she and while they’re both human, he’s answered a higher calling and should know that as a pastor, he shouldn’t be coveting another man’s wife, let alone sleeping with her to the point of pregnancy. I wonder how God looks down on pastors who do this. Her husband is going to be devastated WHENEVER he finds out. If she loved her husband, she wouldn't act like this. Your pastor wants you to tell him everything, I wonder if he wants to share this information with his congregation? She doesn't mention if he's married, are they going to let his wife know the deal? She has a mess on her hands that her type of Praise & Worship she's been participating in is not going to solve. The first thing to do is distance herself from this pastor, but I don't think she will because she's in love with his "ministry."

Everyone Doesn't Deserve Your Best


If people lived by this tweet, life would be much better. Relationships would be lasting and no one would be bitter over bad relationships. Because some people are too trusting, they give their best to this & that person, not having done their homework on said person. Some people are good pretenders, meaning they'll portray themselves as adorable, so they can get your best. Once the mask wears off, they're true colors show and you're mad at the world because you found out you've given your best to the wrong people. Not everyone is deserving of your best, so choose wisely who you give to. Matthew 7:6 cautions against giving pearls to swine, meaning not everyone will appreciate the goodness you give them. Why then do people set themselves up for disappointment by giving their best to everyone? I think it's because some people assume that everyone is going to appreciate a person's best, which is usually true, but not always. The inspiration for this blog message comes from reading several Facebook comments from singles who've written off relationships because they've been hurt repeatedly. Going further, Matthew 7:6 is a GREAT reference for those looking for a romantic relationship because the verse teaches them to use discernment before they agree to yoke with this person. I believe if people used Matthew 7:6 as a guide before giving their best, we would see less hurting people.

Internal Gang Wars


Bloods, Crips, Gangster Disciples & Vice Lords are some of the most (in)famous black gangs in the nation. All of these gangs were birthed out of the civil rights movement. Originally, these gangs were formed to protect their neighborhoods from police harassment, as well as harassment from whites. Gang leaders from each of these gangs formed their crews under the mandate that members stick together. There was no such thing as internal fighting between fellow gang members because the leaders would shut that down quick. Fast forward to the 80's, which was the time where the drug epidemic exploded. Drugs started flowing into the ghetto & that was a wrap. Traditional gang loyalties were put on the backburner for the almighty dollar. At the height of the crack era, dealers could make $10,000 a day, and that's a slow day. When gang members started getting big money from the drug trade, some members got greedy and wanted to dominate the drug trade. Many of the gangs started off as one, but certain sets wanted a piece of the drug trade so they branched off into their own enterprise. If a gang set owned a money-making block, the set(s) that weren't doing so well wanted to knock off the successful set and take over their booming block. The CIA-Contra controversy goes into detail how the CIA funneled drugs into inner-city Black America. If the CIA didn't funnel drugs into American inner cities, there wouldn't be gangs, which meant major cities wouldn't have logged thousands of murders annually because the gangs would have no way to make money.

I Support Virtual K-12 school

If K-12 virtual learning was around when I was in school, I would've gone that route instead of the traditional public school route. Looking at public schools, I see why more parents are enrolling their children in virtual school. Depending on the state, students who do virtual learning graduate earlier than public school kids because they're taking classes year round, and their grades are better because there's no distractions. The discipline a student gains from virtual learning will prepare them for college because they'll be accustomed to online learning. For everyone who likes to say, "Virtual students wouldn't get social skills." False. Virtual K-12 students could bond with likeminded students and sidestep the nonsense of having to go to school with kids who don't want to learn, but they're forced to go to school and because of that, they cause trouble.
