Wish's pastor uncle under scrutiny

[ninefive6]

With a bed and a stripper pole placed next to his pulpit, a pastor in Ohio is all set to begin a series of sermons on sex and relationships beginning Sunday.


Ready to start a new sermon series called "Battle of the Sexes," Pastor Mike Scruggs, who just so happens to be Uncle to Cleveland's own Wish Bone (Charles Scruggs, Jr) of platinum selling rap group Bone Thugs & Harmony, at the Light of Word Ministries in White Oak, Ohio, has put a stripper pole, video games and sports equipment on one side of the pulpit, representing what men desire. On the other side, he has set up a bed with candies, teddy bears, roses and a bottle of wine to depict what women want.


On all Sundays in April, Scruggs will share about best practices in bedroom, keeping intimacy alive and the need to build and maintain trust. "Right now we're having single people having too much sex and married people not having enough sex," he told Fox19.


The pastor will also encourage married couples in the church to take the "Sexperiment," based on the book, Sexperiment: 7 Days to Lasting Intimacy with Your Spouse, by Texas-based Pastor Ed Young, calling on married couples to have sex for seven straight days to see "amazing results" lasting far beyond the week.
"Who better than the church to really bring clarity this.... what I call this holy concept that has been ordained by God," fellow Pastor Ennis Tait was quoted as saying
.

On Friday, Pastor Scruggs held a pre-kickoff service for singles which drew a packed house. "We try to make it relevant, straightforward. We don't sugarcoat anything," WLWT.com quoted him as saying. "We talk about sex. We talk about drugs. We talk about faith. We talk about relationships… things that people are dealing with on a day-to-day basis."


Scruggs admits some could get offended by his message. "We push the envelope, that's true," he said. "Don't take it out of context. Some people say, 'He's going to hell. He's wrong.' We want to talk about it. We don't want them to guess at it, assume it's wrong. It's right. We want to talk about it." And then, he reminds his critics, his mother is a member of his church and she approves of his message.

While asked about his famous Nephew, Scruggs said "Charles makes me proud, their (Bone) music has always had a message. Sometimes people judged their daker themed music, but they have always had a positive message, and there is always two sides to everything."

can someone tell me what the positive message is behind mr. quija and mo murder? (some of the songs they had that had them talking to the devil and chants of murder in the hook or verses) just asking...maybe i'm a bit slow here and didn't catch on to the positivity behind those tracks. maybe if i play it backwards i'll get the message.

"Charles makes me proud, their (Bone) music has always had a message. Sometimes people judged their darker themed music, but they have always had a positive message, and there is always two sides to everything."

Read the last line, there are always 2 sides to everything..

and so i ask once more...what's the positive message in those tracks? what is the 2nd side of it? if no one can tell me, then the positive message (assuming it exists) was deeply embedded in the song to make it ridiculously difficult to decipher. this would render the positive message totally useless if no one can figure it out

I don't see anything wrong with churches talking about real issues, better to be real than not.
