Well Ed Sheeran, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday June 10th goes to a 72 year old pastor from Alabama named Roy Powell. Pastor Roy is the pastor of Cedars Creek Missionary Baptist Church in Alabama. Drop one of the clues bombs to Cedars Creek Missionary Baptist Church in Alabama. Drop on the clues, bombs. Seediscreet Missionary Baptist Church. Okay, salute to everybody who listens to us on 103.1 to beat in Birmingham and 104.1 to beat in Montgomery, Alabama, respectfully.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Now, what do you expect of your pastor? What is expected of a pastor? Most people expect their pastor to lead the church community. They expect their pastor to guide them spiritually, morally, and in practical matters, okay? This includes teaching the word of God, okay? Providing pastorial care, leading worship,
Starting point is 00:03:32 and ensuring the church's wellbeing. Do we need the pastor to be a role model? The answer is yes. Okay, we need a pastor that reflects the teachings of the gospel. You must practice what you preach in order to be an impactful pastor. Roy Powell has been a pastor for 30 years, so clearly he has been that. And you
Starting point is 00:03:50 can tell he's been that by the way his congregation is choosing to stick beside him even though he was charged with first degree robbery. What do you mean Pastor Powell was charged with first degree robbery? Uncle Sharla, my pastor don't have to steal from nobody. We be having two, sometimes three collections on Sundays. The general offering, the special offering to build the church pool, and a thank you offering for our pastor because he is a good man. He needs a new Hyundai Sonata.
Starting point is 00:04:17 So my pastor don't got no reason to rob nobody. Well, let's go to Fox 10 News for the report, please. Tonight, a well-known local pastor is out of jail, charged with first degree robbery. Investigators say 72-year-old Roy Powell took a man's book bag at gunpoint yesterday morning on Mobile Street. The alleged victim, who doesn't want to be identified, tells me he was walking to the post office
Starting point is 00:04:42 when Powell was walking towards him on the sidewalk and bumped into him. He said he was like using my way I'm walking down the sidewalk watch where you're going and we had words back and forth. The alleged victim tells me Powell left the scene after they exchanged words. Minutes later he tells me Powell came back in a truck and with a gun that he used to pistol whip the man in the head. According to this sign at the Cedar Street Missionary Baptist Church, Powell is a pastor here and court documents say he's been a pastor for 30 years. These court documents say Powell actually went back to the scene to apologize.
Starting point is 00:05:22 He's charged with first degree robbery. What if heaven was hell and vice versa? It's too corrupt knowing that God gonna help me blow him up. That wasn't Pastor Roy, that was Pastor Troy. And Pastor Troy was teaching that young man a lesson. See this is what happens when you don't tithe. Tithing is not a strict requirement for salvation but it is seen as a test of faith. Pastor say you're gonna give up that that 10% in my mind that's how this happened okay pastor Powell walking down the street they bump into each other pastor says you was in my way the devil got busy and made that young man have a back-and-forth pastor Powell said I know God protects me but I still stay with my dad so according to the
Starting point is 00:06:00 victim he left the scene now I'm gonna tell you what happened now I'm gonna tell you what happened this is just ina tell you what happened. This is just in my mind. Pastor Powell went home and prayed over his pistol. He then proceeded to grab his holy hammer, his godly Glock. Then he went back to confront this heathen who don't be tithing and proceeded to pistol whip this man in the name of Jesus. Okay, divine discipline is what it's called.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Now in the Bible, Roman 12, 19, it says, beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God for it is written vengeance is mine I will repay says the Lord that's what made Pastor Roy return to the scene of the crime and apologize because he knew in that moment he let the devil use him but again I ask what if heaven was hell and vice versa would you start doing evil in order to nurture he had to apologize because that's the Christian way. Acknowledge the wrong and express remorse. Gotta ask for forgiveness after you pistol whip somebody, not just from God, but from
Starting point is 00:06:50 others, especially the person you hurt. Then you repent. Okay, you gotta make a sincere effort to change and avoid repeating the mistake. But Pastor Roy 72, if this is true, that wasn't his first pistol whipping and it won't be his last, especially if y'all don't go to church and give up that 10%. I don't feel like I gave him the credit he deserved for being stupid, but it's because what if heaven was hell and vice versa?
Starting point is 00:07:14 Please give Pastor Roy Powell the biggest he-ho. Y'all better tie. I know that's right, I do every Sunday. You better. I do every Sunday you better I do All right.
