Sure God can do that, I feel that the church in Odessa Tx is blessed with
such an occurance with Bro. J.T. Pugh being followed by his son (who is
now the superintendant of the Texico District). What Bro. Jerry might be
refering to is the other examples that are not as stellar as this one or
your Bro. Josh (And I have seen and heard of a few of those!).

People, if I may be so bold as to make a suggestion....pray before
posting a rebuttal and reread it before sending and make sure that it is
the words you wish to say. Too often we (yup I have done it) reply with
great emotion (often anger or disgust) and either miss the intent of the
post we are rebuking or say things in a less than ideal manner. Remember
with everything there must be love.

Lord Bless in His Wonderful Name,
Bro. Bill
