Globally, I wonder how many times this has happened over the last 25 years? -
Well, you are the guy that could probably make the best estimate. Start crunching some numbers!Originally posted by Indy Coug View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

Most bishops serve for 5 years, usually while middle-aged; that's a long time, I'd think the chances of any middle-aged person dying in a five year span is significant. There must be some policy. Anyone have The Stake President's Handbook?Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostComment

The odds of a 45 year old nonsmoking male in moderate health dying within the next 5 years is approximately 90 to 1.Comment

I had a close friend in grad school and a few years later he was called to be a bishop. He was in his early thirties. About a month later, his wife was killed in an auto accident leaving him with four young children. I thought that surely they would release him ASAP. They left him in for an entire year before they finally called someone else. I couldn't believe it.Originally posted by Indy Coug View Post"There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

I have yet to ask for a release from a calling, but I can't imagine not asking for one under those circumstances.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Post
Edit: If they didn't release me first. I'm surprised they left your friend in so long.Comment
