preacher

The pastor of Tabernacle of Praise Worship Center on Deshotel Lane was shot and killed Friday night in the middle of church services, and the motive for the killing remains unknown at this hour.

In a prayer before Saturday night’s NASCAR Nationwide Series race in Nashville, Tennessee, Pastor Joe Nelms name-checked several big sponsors and supporters of the sport, thanking the Almighty for things like “GM performance technology,” “Goodyear tires” — and of course his “smoking hot wife Lisa.” He wraps up the whole thing “in Jesus’ name, boogity boogity boogity, amen.”
