[Sci Fi Guy]

I believe that he has remained as pastor. I think that his son resigned on principle. I wish he had resigned from the leadership of the church, he could have assumed the role of a lay-evangelist. I believe that the Scripture passage against divorced leaders applies to those who hold positions of leadership, not those in ministry. Because we are all called to some form of ministry.

There is some question though as to whether or not the passage in Timothy is really about divorce. "Husband of one wife" is problematic. Alternative theories are 1)Polygamy (which was practiced but not widely) 2)a faithful spouse. There was a word Paul could have used that specifically meant "divorce." He did not use that phrase. If you take the passage too literally, a widower who has has remained single or remarried and a single man can not pastor either.
