Jeff Cinquemani is the Associate Pastor for Florida Hospital Church –a vibrant and progressive Adventist church community in Orlando with close to 1,000 members. Tami Cinquemani, his wife, currently serves as Worship Director of the Florida Hospital Church.

Their church is known for dynamic and creative outreach to their community. But Jeff and Tami had no idea “outreach” would reach global proportions, thanks to a video on YouTube that made headlines, literally, on CNN’s “Headline News” and put Florida Hospital Church on the map.

The video? Well, three pastors’ wives at Florida Hospital Church often end up being the topic of conversation in their husbands’ sermon illustrations. So they returned serve. Vicki McDonald (married to senior pastor Andy), Amy Achata (married to youth pastor David) and Tami collaborated on making a parody music video to poke fun at their husbands. They revamped Carrie Underwood’s popular “Before He Cheats” with their own rendition of “Before He Speaks.” It was only intended to be shown at their annual church retreat. Then it was posted on YouTube….

160,000 hits later and counting, the CNN segment, the buzz in the blogosphere, and the church’s media team had a new problem on their hands – how to outdo themselves. They did just that, producing another hilarious satire called “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Pastors.” Pastor Jeff provided lyrics.

Watch this hilarious video, “Before he speaks”

The pastor’s wives are upset about constantly being portrayed in a bad light in their husband’s sermons. So what’s a girl to do, but write a song about it?
