Bro. Hoovie,

Funny-sadly it's all true. I have made kind of a hobby of collecting the CD's from these services... The most horrible ever was one where a preacher had fathers come dump their daughter purses out on the altar.... he was about to go after the wives purses too when he thought better of it... I mean I can only speak for myself by my husband would have been going home with a black eye if he tried it.

Can you imagine the shame of the young girl on birth control pills for irregular cycles... Try to take that back. And Prax, lest you think I am any less than 100% honest PM me and I'll give you preachers names.

Why would he want fathers to dump their daughters purses? I'd refuse.

Thank you for the encouragement Sherri. I am not giving up on God and He will never give up on me, he promised me that the night he filled me with His Spirit. He is after all and through it all, a good God.

Hey I do believe you - bizarre as it is! You gotta admit though, this junk not the norm. No way would that go over in my church. I would fully expect half the congregants to walk out. What whimpy dads... Incredible!

Because men are spiritual leaders. Women and girls are weak and sucked in by the desire for the things of Egypt (you know, makeup, jewelry) the sermon is titled 'The Wearing of Gold'... I really never understood how he got himself and the crowd worked up into such a frenzy over what should have just been another sermon on standards.

I would love to hear the sermon that this took place in!

Wow. I would have refused. What happened to letting the word work with people. If its not in the lady heart then nothing was accomplished but foolishness.

I'm not real big on wearing gold, but after a sermon like that, I'd be tempted to cap a few front teeth.

Or for that matter the girls who are using the pills for their intended use! It would make no difference to me. The pastor and congregation has NO/ZERO/ZILCH right to know.
