I was at one UPC church and had 12 filled with the Holy Ghost and 5 baptized that Sunday morning and the pastor asked me at lunch if I was going to grow back my goatee (he had seen me with it on my website) and I said YES! I shaved it to honor your custom here as I would in any nation I preach in - I honor their customs. He canceled the revival - I was scheduled there for two weeks. I left VERY UPSET! There is no excuse for that kind of stupidity!

I have heard several UPC and UC preachers reference goatees and homosexuals and heard N A Urshan say on several occasions - "The homosexual wears the beard?" How stupid and condescending can you be.
Those guys are so out of touch with reality!
I have wore facial hair since I was 16 except for the 18 years I was in the "Apostolic" movement. I still preach for some UPC guys and some ask me NOT TO SHAVE! LOL I always do as a matter of respect to their culture.

Wow. Bro. Kinsey's church in Pensacola has no problem with beards I don't think
