Not long ago I tune in to the morning news and I see Diane Sawyer interviewing this Reverend out of Dallas. I believe his name was Reverend Rickie Rush. And the subject was on the stage with him. This man that robbed the preacher's office stealing some watches and such. They showed him on the video camera there where he was in the preacher's offices doing his bad. Well, I am looking to see what is this on National TV--something big enough to make the National Morning News with Diane Sawyer. Well, what it was-- was, the preacher is bringing forth the message that they forgave this young man--and this young man is sitting over there being viewed on National TV, and he had just been showed on the National TV News that he was running to and fro in the house unarthorized and doing unarthorized things. Diane Sawyer swung into some sort of interaction-communication with the Reverend and the young man there, but all the Reverend said is that they forgave this young man and took him in--and the young man is testifying that yeah he did that bad and was going to try to straighten up and all that.

The show on this went off of course in not a long time to other parts of the National and World News.

I am left there waiting --trying to figure out just what happened on National TV with the National and World News.

I think the bottom line was this church in SW Dallas got some things stolen from the church office, and they caught him on camera, and they found him, and forgave him, and now he evidently is a part of them...or maybe he was a part of them to begin with...but now he is 'under they eye' part of them.

I missed any part, if there was one, about Christ or God.

Kind of leaves me scratching my head. Oh yeah, I think that Pastor Rickie Rush is with that church called something like : Inspiring Body of Christ...., kind of like that Potter House church over there, which I think is much bigger.

But, did anybody else see that on National, World TV? And if you did, could you clear it up for me, as to how that level of a subject of crime and punishiment and redemption gets this National News Level of Coverage?

(some things just mesmerize me)
