I do now understand some of your history better now.
I didn't know he was a target. He never talked along those terms, stuck very much to himself. Yes, there was almost no relationship there. He's probably heard we left the UPC through the grapevine. We sang Psalms 19:7-10 all the time as a worship song. I was worship leader there and my husband was assistant pastor for 7 years. I haven't mentioned where I was from because I think he means well, but yes, there was just never much of a relationship there. When we pastored in Owasso we hardly ever heard from them. He loves Larry Booker to death. Thanks for saying you understand some of my history better now.

Is that what motivates you?

These men are walking away from a lot to remain true to their convictions.

As hard as it is for some of you more enlightened types to grasp, there are still men in this world who live according to principle and not expediency.
That's why they do it in my experience. I was an ultra-con for 16 years.

If the Tampa vote represented "destruction" to the fellowship, why is he surprised "at how many ministers nationwide are not happy?" Sounds like double-pleading. He is joining disparate thoughts together and trying desperately to make them flow into one conclusion. If the vote was "destruction for the UPC, then more people than just Larry B. and his circle ought to be concerned.
Well, you know God does not employ logic.
