Sister, I put all that hurt aside a good while back. I just don't see any reason to subject myself to being treated that way again. When Sis Bryant died I went to her funeral and while I was in the line to go to the casket is when this one sister and another one decided they were gonna double team me and tell me about all the wrong I had done. I could not believe it. Here I was fighting off tears because of Sis B dying and these two women thought it appropriate to start berating me over my beard and having left the church. That's the last time I was there at SH and the last time I got the chance to speak with Bro. Campbell as well. Hopefully I will be able to get through to speak with Sis Campbell though. You don't stop loving someone just because you have disagreements and these people were my pastor and pastor's wife for several years. It certainly won't be the same with him gone.

Male pogonotrophy (the growing of facial hair; i.e, beardedness) is often culturally associated with wisdom and virility.

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!!!

simply to balance the Rules out. I think this sort of weird. I mean, how about we just take their Radios away from them so they cannot listen to sports or something ??

Thad - I was at PSR some years ago and YES - Radio and listening to the Ball Games was preached against - along with Sound Tracks and Overhead Projectors.

It was strange to me that they were screaming their lungs out about video and other things and an entire section of sick, wheelchair bound, oxygen machine breathing, blind, crippled people never got a message on healing and not one hand for healing was ever laid on them the entire conference.
BUT THEY DID GET TO HEAR ABOUT HOW EVIL OVERHEAD PROJECTORS WERE! Now - That is REAL APOSTOLIC isn't it??????????????
