Experience and Embrace Grace. Theological and Social Commentary from an Evangelical Christian Perspective. Friday, March 23, 2007. Intro to Matthew 8:34-38. Tavis Smiley coined a phrase that day that stuck with me. He called out the “Pimp Daddy Preacher” for taking advantage of his position and people. He talked about these pastors who drove Lexus’ and wore suits that cost a half of my year’s salary and installed ATM’s in their churches! Just as a side note the overly protective suburban Dad-Da found out...

http://experienceandembracegrace.blogspot.com/2007/01/american-idol-rants.html
Experience and Embrace Grace. Theological and Social Commentary from an Evangelical Christian Perspective. Thursday, January 25, 2007. I do have two observations/rants about the show.
