Friends, we are in full meltdown mode here.

NCO on the left. Apostolic Summit on the right. ALJC defectors to the middle.

Unreal.

No. I disagree. The NCO is attractive to some in the mothership only insofar as it's a way to get away from the "Apostolic Summit" guys.

And the "Apostolic Summit" looks good to those who don't want to fellowship "divine flesh" and "trinnies" the way they imagine eveyone else in the UPC does.

Dunno about "ALJC defectors" except some that have come into the UPC recently.

You've got a good perspective on your ministry. I saw your post about how you feel that the folks you pastor are "God's people" and not "yours." That is such a monumental step in ministry that a whole lot of preachers are never able to take. Keep your eyes fixed on that angle and the rest of this stuff will look like the peripheral nonsense that it is.

Forum slang for the UPC organization.

I'm glad to learn it's only forum slang, because that is far, far, far, from the truth.

.

Hate to disappoint, but many within NCO are also still in UPC.

It's simply not an alternative organization, or denomination, and is not intending on becoming one.

My point is that dissatisfaction seems to be at an all-time high.

My goal is to "convert" Brother Griffin back to the mothership ASAP so that he can calm the restless natives. Of course, he'll need to shave that ungodly beard first.

Perhaps if I merely write without posting my photo they won't realize what a heathen I am!

Nope.

You must be PAJC, with no TV, and UPC,to be acceptable.

I thought the powerhouse of the PHH finally decided beards are ok anyway?

To the shock of many no doubt, would have no problem with no TV. Just have problem with breaking fellowship over it.

As far as preaching, I'm old school. No one could tell if PCI or PAJC. Of course I guess I'm still a little too ecumenical for some. Preaching/teaching all of this love and tolerance nonsense.

(Can I at least keep my coffee?)
