Hillary, A Methodist Pastor?
Is Hillary Clinton Pursuing a Career in Ministry?
Former Secretary of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is reportedly considering going into the ministry and becoming a pastor.
This may come as a surprise to many since, as RelevantMagazine.com notes, Clinton is widely perceived as not being religious.
Nevertheless, she has a long history of being involved in the Methodist Church. She has reportedly been considering a career in the ministry for more than 20 years.

I hope she has Todd Bently for a Revival. Maybe he can kick some sense into her.

when I first saw this I was torn between gales of laughter and weeping, with a measure of outrage.
We all know she'll be taken seriously by lots of folks.

No kidding...but it does seem to be true. Wonder if this is a way to try to restore some kind of credibility to a future political campaign.
Hillary Wants to Preach
-Hillary Clinton wants to preach. That’s what she told Bill Shillady, her longtime pastor, at a recent photo shoot for his new book about the daily devotionals he sent her during the 2016 campaign. Scattered bits of reporting suggest that ministry has always been a secret dream of the two-time presidential candidate: Last fall, the former Newsweek editor Kenneth Woodward revealed that Clinton told him in 1994 that she thought “all the time” about becoming an ordained Methodist minister. She asked him not to write about it, though: “It will make me seem much too pious.” The incident perfectly captures Clinton’s long campaign to modulate—and sometimes obscure—expressions of her faith.
Now, as Clinton works to rehabilitate her public image and figure out the next steps after her brutal November loss, religion is taking a central role. After long months of struggling to persuade Americans that she is trustworthy, authentic, and fundamentally moral, Clinton is lifting up an intimate, closely guarded part of herself. There are no more voters left to lose. In sharing her faith, perhaps Clinton sees something left to win, whether political or personal...
