A great preacher died Thursday night. R.I.P., Brother Bob

Brother Bob Anderson of Parkview Baptist Church died. Man was a great preacher. He was one of the more humorous preachers I've ever encountered. The minister of music was a Gump so Bama game week was always funny as hell as they would barb each other at the pulpit. He had a gift for speaking the word as he could preach while not sounding like he was preaching. He always made time for his members and always had a ready ear not matter how trivial the problem seemed as he always remembered the problem wasn't trivial to someone. Here is part of the Advocate story today:
Then there was the story he used to tell when he nearly lost everything in Shreveport when he was in the car business for a short time. It was funny as well, hell. Pun intended.

The Rev. Bob Anderson, pastor of Parkview Baptist Church for 22 years and founder of the church's prominent school, died Thursday night. He was 84.
Anderson, who had battled Parkinson's disease for seven years, died at his home surrounded by family, said Leo Honeycutt, a family friend.
"Bob was one of a kind. He just inspired people," Honeycutt said. "He was completely humble, and also had a great deal of humor. There was never anything that rattled him. He was a little bit superhuman in that respect. He never got mad about anything."
Anderson was senior pastor at the church from 1974 to 1996, which grew from 250 to 3,000 members under his leadership.
When he retired from the pastorate in 1996, Anderson led the Antioch Affection ministry to assist churches and pastors in conflict. The ministry fit perfectly with Anderson's personality, said the Rev. Tommy Middleton, former pastor of Woodlawn Baptist Church who directs the Baptist Association of Greater Baton Rouge....
"He was very welcoming," Middleton said. "He was a great friend to pastors. He was always passionate about encouraging other pastors. Second, Bob had a gentle spirit about him. He was gentle and a gentleman. ... His heart was to preach the gospel."
Then there was the story he used to tell when he nearly lost everything in Shreveport when he was in the car business for a short time. It was funny as well, hell. Pun intended.

Holy shite I had no idea Parkview Baptist was founded in response to the desegregation case. Why am I not surprised

Are you saying it’s bad that people founded new schools after the government ruined the old schools?

Very good man, the perfect example of “gone but not forgotten”
Has he been sick for a while? Or was this sudden

No lie. Went in his office one time and there was a huge portrait behind his desk...of himself. Strange.

You're pissed off at the preacher who married you and your ex? That's like being pissed at the tree for being there while you're drunk and hit it.

I think that was the dumbass who married me to my (now) ex-husband. I never was and never will be anything but an atheist, even though my ex tried to brainwash me into being a sheep. frick off, Bob!
I assume that y'all asked Bob to marry you. How is that his fault?

You're angry. Your ex is fortunate.

Your step-sister's oxy stash cashed? Baby steps to the elevator, Bob. Put down the knife. Okay nice and easy now and no one gets hurt. Show us on the doll where Parson Brown touched you.
Anyway, what??? You clearly did not need your ex-wife in order to be brainwashed. Laaawty.
