How to use reverend in a sentence?
Reverend Brown Girl, you look so good, someone ought to put you on a plate and sop you up with a biscuit.
If Georgia Democrat Oscar Zaro send Jon Ossoff and the reverend to Washington, those $ 2,000 checks will go out the door, restoring hope and decency for so many people who are struggling right now.
Someone had to put an end to Herschel Walker's games, and today Reverend Warnock showed again why Herschel Walker is the best person for the job, agreeing to Walker's preferred debate so Georgians would have at least one opportunity to see the clear choice they have in this election.
Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams King:
Its changed the way everybodys looking at this. Look at the millions of people marching around the world. George Floyds last moments before George Floyds May 25 death while in police custody were captured on video and has sinceprompteda worldwide movement to combat racial injustice and calls for police reform. Protests have occurred almost daily in many cities across the world, with some devolving to looting and rioting early on. George Floyds was killed unjustly. Martin Luther King Jr. was killed unjustly. My father Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams King was killed unjustly, my grandmother, Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams King, was killed unjustly. I mourn and grieve with the family of George Floyds. I still miss my beloved family members.
I think Herschel Walker is more likely to win by not debating, god help him against Reverend Warnock onstage.
