This is the second book that follows a new minister named Elmo Jenkins.  He serves a very large downtown church.  While I can't really relate to the size of the church and how it is governed, I can relate to the many things that happened there.  I think no matter what the size of the church, the same things happen, just in varying degrees.  Towards the end of the book we are reminded of the evil that can reside in churches in the name of protecting "we've always done it that way". The Senior Minister's comments at a special called business meeting of the congregation is a gentle reminder to us all of what a church should really be about.  Too many times people get caught up in the politics of the church.  (Yes, there are politics in the church.  After all, people are in the church.)  It's always heartwarming to know God really is in control.  This book proves that even ministers can have a good time at their job.
