Jeremiah 8:18--9:1

A pastor has been called to a certain congregation with one major mandate in mind: “Revitalize our youth ministry!

However, the very faces that were on the pastoral call committee often have alternative family plans on Sunday nights.

Give me an accounting of your management, because you cannot be my manager any longer.' 3Then the manager said to himself, 'What will I do, now that my master is taking the position away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg. 4I have decided what to
