Thirty verses is pretty much typical for the first lesson. Then there is the Psalm, then the second lesson, then the gospel, then the sermon.

I don’t know what I dislike more – the “only preachers can understand” quote, or the “30 verses is kinda long” quote.
Generally, in a Fundy church, you read one verse, then quote 15 out of context after that. I guess for him, thirty verses is an eternity. Better read em before the Rapture happens! : )

Listening to him reminded me of another Fundy staple – the “preacher” voice. Ever notice how they all sound the same?

If he thinkd 30 verses is a long reading he should go to an Easter Vigil in a Catholiic Church and stand while entire chapters are read. I never heard as much Scripture read in church in my life.

Think it did us all a lot of good too.

And how about the claim, “Don’t be upset with me, God told me to say it!”

That was a nice little flashback to the past. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard those exact same words. Sadly the words “quintessential exemplar” explain it well. :/ Ugh.

A “lengthy” 30 verse passage?!? Ha! If this man actually thinks that’s long, *clearly* he has never been to any of the Reformed churches I’ve visited/been a member of since leaving fundamentalism!
