One has some unexpected situations to deal with as a minister. Here is a classic. A member walked into Church one Sunday, and introduced his second wife -- by which I mean, additional wife. I already knew about this. He had added a traditional marriage to a civil marriage (which is unlawful), so that he now had two wives, one of whom was very upset. In that moment, I decided to deal with the issue later, and I welcomed them warmly. OBSERVATION: The Church was dealing with them "redemptively".
