The real difference in my opinion between the MPLS ministers mentioned by the earlier reader and the "god squad" ministers in St Paul, is how they fit into the scheme of things.

Again in my opinion, It'd be very easy to look at the two groups and draw the conclusion that because both groups are black males and ministers, that they are serving the same purpose in different cities. This is not the case, as Ms. Englund (sp) so aptly pointed-out.

There are MANY ministers (of many different ethnic backgrounds) currently doing this type of work in MPLS. To the best of my knowledge, none of them are named Staten or McAfee. The Reverends McAfee & Staten I know of don't enter into an inflamed situation with the intention of defusing it.
