Pastor injured in motorcycle accident during church
An Indiana pastor broke his wrist when he rode a motorcycle off the platform during his Sunday sermon.
Jeff Harlow, the senior pastor at Crossroads Community Church in Kokomo, Ind., brought out a dirt bike during the second service Sunday to demonstrate unity. His point was that man and machine become one when a rider strides a motorcycle.
The machine took the man into a vacant front row when Harlow attempted to walk the bike forward on stage and lost control. His wrist injury required surgery to repair.
Harlow had performed the trick without incident in the first Sunday service and the Saturday night service, his wife reported.
