I read this news and was actually happy for him but the person with me said she felt it was too soon for the pastor to re-marry. She thinks as a pastor, he should have remained single for a little while longer as a mark of respect for his dead wife.
I think it's better to re-marry than 'live in sin' (as a pastor)
What do you guys think?
Also, is four years not enough to mourn and move on from a dead spouse?
