How many of these awful churches have you attended enough to know this about them?

You would have to go for a good while to really be able to make such a judgment.

Truly, this sounds like one of those Pentecostal urban myths, the horrible preachers who preach nothing but Acts 2:38 and standards.

So tell us...how many can you say for sure are like this, in your experience?

Or is this assumption and hearsay?

I've been in UPC for my whole life 32 years. Thank God my pastor wasn't that way... but I know what I'm talking about. I've traveled enough and been to enough conferences.
