Church Fired Pastor For Attending Rick Ross Concert

Pastor Rodney Wills was
just about to reach 4
years at Mt. Salem
Baptist Church when the
unusual happened. Reported by
AmericaPreachers.com
He is the youngest pastor to be installed at 26
years old and is now the shortest term pastor
in Mt. Salem's 109 year history. On Saturday,
Mt. Salem voted him out for attending a local
Rick Ross concert. With a vote of 11 to 3, the
14 deacons met at 11pm Saturday night to
discuss and come to a conclusion that they did
not need his services anymore. Rev. Wills
arrived to the church the next day for Sunday
morning worship service and notice his
parking sign taken down and his name
removed from the office door.
The deacons even asked another minister from
the community to officiate the service that
morning. "We cannot have our leader
supporting people of this world who are
tearing down the kingdom of God." said
Deacon Miles Langley.
According to Deacon Langley, this is not the
first time Rev. Wills has attended a concert
while pastoring Mt. Salem. 9 months ago the
diaconate board met with Rev. Wills when
word was given to them that many youth and
young adults spotted the pastor at a Lil Wayne
concert.
"We know that many saints will have mixed
opinions from our actions, but this is not how
we do things here at Mt. Salem. We cannot
have a pastor praising the world one minute
then praising the Lord the next. Period" said
Deacon Langley
