Tim Glende, St. Peter's, Freedom, Wisconsin,
is another fan of Craig Groeschel.Our Anonymouser Seven research team has come up with names for the phony blogger, since Lillo has denied the deed and any ability with an Apple computer:
Suspect Appleton pastors - Tom Mielke at St Matthews, Tim Glende at St Peters, Mark Henke at Bethany, Ron Ash dictating with someone else doing the posts, Ski dictating with someone else doing the posts. The CORE folks use MACs.Lillo and these pastors know who the phony blogger is, that he is the same one who created Anonymouse Shrinker and fled the scene.
Why does attention focus on Tim Glende?
A. He has been a Ski buddy ever since they were pups on the football team in prep.
B. No one ever called Glende a good student.
C. The phony blog and Anonymouse Shrinker seemed rather focused on defending Ski, which seems to be Glende's part-time job. Other obsessions of the blogger are Lenski (bad) and UOJ (wonderful).
D. Glende is known for deception. That was noted on a blog from his own church member, when his assistant pastor quit after a few weeks. Our favorite blog has also pointed out how often Glende has deceived his congregation about the anti-Lutheran conferences he attends with Ski and Katie.
The phony blog reminds us of the Church and Change
modus operandi. It tries to copy what it cannot produce on its own. It decries copying photos while copying photos. It has the same sanctimonious message every time - a bitter and vindictive personal attack.
Some of the worst posts have been taken down, but they reveal a pathological personality, emotionally arrested in the teen years, the kind of person who poses with Katy Perry instead of his wife on Facebook.
Pastor Tim Glende a.k.a. Pastor Tim
5 ways to describe you: Blessed by God. Loves his family. Passionate about sharing Jesus in the Valley. Hard worker. Obsessive about Ohio State Football – “Go Bucks!”.
What you do at St. Peter: Lead pastor and main preacher for weekly worship, with main ministry responsibilities being administration, worship, and working with our school board, staff, and students.

Married in 1995 to Holly, his wife of 14 years; blessed in 1996 with the birth of their daughter Miranda and equally as blessed in 1998 when their son Noah was born.
Other places he is likely to be found: His children’s sporting events, FVL’s weight room, on the golf course (Fridays only), spending Friday nights with Holly, watching football in the Fall

WELS church lady has left a new comment on your post "The Nominees for Phony Blogger Are":
Judging from the conversations, the fake ichabod was being manned by a small group of pastors and one layman.(Niedfeldt)Pastor Lillo is almost a decade older than the pastors in the said group. Where is his responsibility in leading the younger shepherds? Lillo was commenting for sometime on Intrepid Lutherans.(hence he does know my real name and responded to my comments with a civil tone) Joe Krohn followed the fake blog for a time. Joe Krohn! To God be the glory! Have you been reading his testimonies regarding faith? It is the work of the Holy Spirit.
Was Pastor Lillo the one using I.J. Reilly as a screen name? "Reilly" claimed to be a pastor in the Fox Valley. This business about Rue, Lenske, and Schmidt is so bogus. I have in front of me a conference paper written by a WELS pastor in 2008. An entire page discusses Rue's teaching on homiletics. This pastor used Reu as a positive source in a paper titled, "What Are Catholics Hearing From The Pulpit"?
Keep moving guys! It is all in the name of Confessional Lutheranism. Glende, Ski, and the like are moving to something else.
In Christ,
from WELs church lady
Addendum Borrowed from the One Who Cannot Be Named:
From Anonymouse: This has got to be a new low, even for you. You admit that you know nothing about this situation other than what you read in the St. Peter newsletter. As far as you know, this has absolutely nothing to do with the Core. Yet you print this story with your little photoshopped picture designed to make Pastor Glende and Ski look as ridiculous as you possibly can (What, you've never looked silly having a good time at a restaurant?) and hint that it has something to do with St. Peter's relationship with the Core. On the record: I have no Idea why Pastor Christenson asked for a call out of St. Peter AND YOU DON'T HAVE ANY IDEA EITHER! I really don't know how you can live with yourself or sleep at night.
"Lord, Lord, didn't I maintain a church on the internet and mercilessly mock those who weren't (in my opinion) orthodox enough?"
"I never knew you!"

Above is the original silly photo, posted by Bishop Katie herself on Twitter. Shame on Katie!
The threesome attended a pastoral conference on Mark Driscoll's home turf,
but no one owned up to being in Seattle for Driscoll.
GJ - Reading the tea leaves, I would say that the someone approved the departure of the new pastor after only a few months. The public record of Ron Ash and Tim Glende is clear - they are up to their necks in unionistic Church Growth. There is no possibility that the new pastor left because he was too growthy for that pair! Consider also the leaven of Ski and Katie, whose motto is: "No Enthusiast left behind." Another source confirmed that Glende and Ash are the cause, not the cure.

The Appleton Dumpling Gang is well fed.
This PhotoShop was inspired by Glende's and Ski's lack of candor
about their trip to Seattle.
This cartoon made Wally Oelhaven furious,
but it sure fits The CORE, Ski, Glende, Kati, and Ron Ash.
Ron Ash retired as the pastor of St. Peter, Freedom,
Floyd Luther Stolzenburg introduced Church Growth to St. Paul, German Village,when Tim Glende was an impressionable teen member there. Kicked out of the LCMS for cause, Stolzenburg was divorced by his wife, but WELS made him an overpaid CG guru - then Kuske and Schumann endorsed him for
pastoral work.The apple does not fall far from the tree, does it?
But sometimes we just end up with The CORE!
Pretty hypocritical that it's OK for Confessional Crusaders to post anonymously. As long as it promotes your skewed agenda, right PJ? What a freaking double standard.
Run on sentences? Well that's typical criticism from someone who is narrow minded (or should I say closed minded) and needs to retake reading and comprehension. So if there's no real substance to criticize, lets (
sic) nit pick (
sic - nitpick is one word) grammar. Give me a break. Get a life.
Mighty Mouse [Most likely Tim Felt-Needs] But he denies it.
Tim loves to use the term "Confessional Crusaders."
