Girls are asked to wear a womens hair fasion and men to wear their hair as most men do.
Jewelry..ear rings etc to not be excessive or guady.
Don't go all Tammy Faye..but if you need a little help..use a "little help"
We encourage are girls to wear dresses if they are on the platform.
Also we encourage them to not be to low cut in the blouse's
We do also ask all our women to be clean shaven.
So shoot me please....I've become a legalist  |
Legs? Pits????? Who checks this?

Do we have platform standards @ NLC?
Yes, we do. All of our folks who are on the platform stand.  (there are no seats)

I believe platform guidelines are necessary. I also believe some pastors go way overboard. Platform standards are not just a thing with apostolic churches though. One important thing I believe is if a pastor does set platform guidelines is that they are to be held consistently by all. I've seen where that is not always done with things being "enforced" on one member and not another. Causes big problems!

When the time came to be part of the ministry team I shaved, without complaining. How do the rest of you feel about platform standards?

It is not the standards I object to, but the platform

platform standards are fine , very acceptable for a pastor to set these for leadership, however if they bleed over into the preaching and become heaven or hell, this is not right, uh uh, dt

The Platform should be made of good construction, and good materials ,so heavyset folks wouldn't fall in.It's need to not to be too high so folks won't hurt themselves when they jump off.
