Church Under Fire for Handing Out ‘I Love Hot Youth Pastors’ Stickers
The world in the church
A Southern Baptist church has come under fire after the youth pastor handed out “I love hot youth pastor’ stickers, prompting backlash from social media over his poor choice in passing these around.
Fairview Baptist Church Student pastor Cory Wall has been put on administrative leave, pending an investigation, after he made a “poor decision” to distribute these stickers to his youth group kids, which went small-time viral on Twitter. The stickers likely plays on the popular “I heart hot _______” trend that is occupying the mind of pop culture.
In response to the brouhaha, Wall sent out the message on the left, with pastor Scott Shipes sent out the one on the right.
Finally, the church responded publicly on Facebook, writing:
In response to the story, many of the commenters are in hysterics, demanding that the church and pastor should be investigated by the police.
