If the UPC is so bad, why not get out and move on (of course with the right spirit). Why would Miles Young get out and Bro. Nat. Wilson stay in? Just curious...

Did I miss something, is Nate Wilson staying in?

He is still in at the present time. I'm not sure when or if he will leave. In my opinion, and its just my opinion you should be one or the other and not both.

See what the AMF has today...should be a lesson to all. They came out fighting...and went down fighting...
If the new group lives and learns from history maybe they will know what to and what not to do. I am not against in any way forming a new group for that will always happen however we must be very careful that we do not become bitter or tear down what God has built in the form of relationships and families.

He said that he had been told that. But according to his website, the lead coordinator was in his pulpit that very next Sunday. No "staying over" for him at least.

Seems like his friends have told him wrongly a few times lately.

NW is still listed at https://wec.upci.org/ministers/ . I have no idea how long it takes to update that list, but they seem to get your name in the Forward pretty quickly.

I have no way of knowing. Also, to be clear, I am not making a judgement as to the caliber of preachers joining the WPF. I just wanted to point out that simply by looking at numbers of applicants does not tell the whole story. Relying upon numbers alone, great or small, to make a point could be misleading.

72 ministers of high caliber joining the WPF could create a huge impact, while 300 ministers of mediocre caliber may not cause a ripple.

We will have to wait and see.
