ReplyDeleteCongrats. Hope she finishes her degree though and doesn't let all that hard work go to waste.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the, yes, but this boy works for Gil's church? How much money does Gil's church take in that he can afford to pay this boy and himself, and probably others? Why are the sons (and in-laws) dependent on their father for income? Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat does it matter to you? You aren't paying their bills, are you? He isn't a boy. He is a man. A lot of churches have more than one pastor on staff. He is probably going to work with the kids or youth group. He has a degree in ministry. It will be good that he is using it. If he is working for the church, then he is dependent on the church for his salary not his future father-in-law. Pastors don't pay the bills for their churches. They have a bookkeeper take care of that. Just because he is working for the church now doesn't mean he is stuck there for life. He can get some experience and then move on if he chooses.
DeleteIf he wasn't courting his daughter, would Gil have hired him anyway?
ReplyDeleteThis can't possibly be "the BIG news"?? This is expected news, not surprising at all. I'm happy for them, but really just trying to create surprises where there are none.
ReplyDeleteCongrats

DeleteThis young lady came across to marry as being desperate to me. I bet she will abandon her education and throw it away to marry quickly. It seems like this family uses any education or training their daughters receive as just 'a fill in' to keep them amused and busy until they marry. None of them will give a thought to family planning in the least, take no precaution,, even natural ones, to pace out their lives together before the nausea, diapers and noise begin. Children ARE wonderful in life, if that's what you aspire for...to be parents, but nothing can give a couple that time together before children enter the picture. No need to rush your life and condense it in a few months from courtship to parenthood. This is my opinion and I know others differ...I think they're just too severe, that's all.
ReplyDeleteErin uses her degree... she teaches piano full time. Just saying.
