Defiant Pastor Back In Georgia Supreme Court

The Associated Press reports today on a dispute between the pastor of a small church in Cedartown, Georgia and the deacons of the church. Last week the dispute was back in the Georgia Supreme Court for the third time. Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church pastor Willie M. Bolden refuses to leave his post. In an earlier round of litigation, the court ordered a congregational vote on whether the deacons control the church's property. By a vote of 27-12, the congregants said they do.
