Many of my posts have theme music (at least for me). When I read about pastor Jeffrey Reaves’s. arrest on a charge of misdemeanor assault and battery, I heard Smack My Bitch Up by Prodigy. The bitch in this case was his daughter.
What music do you hear when reading about these miscreants?
I am troubled by one aspect of this story; a comment by a parishioner.
One longtime church member said Pastor Reaves is an honorable man and this should be a private family matter.

Reaves is a Baptist. He leads Good Shepherd Baptist Church were the motto is, “A strong hand to guide the flock.”
