We all are equal under God

I saw an excellent movie recently on DVD called Sweet Land. It's set in post-WWI Minnesota and involves a controversial Norwegian-German mail-order marriage.

In Sweet Land, John Heard plays the local minister who openly forbids the marriage. He comes across as a holier-than-thou, snobbish minister.

It reminds me that ministers and pastors are not above the rest of us, although some may act that way. We all have equal access to God, His word and His love.
