Middle of the road, tolerant, progressive music and worship.. Good biblical teaching and preaching without a lot of the spitting and snorting.. ;)

Yes, I know of good church in Cleveland I would consider moderate. I think they run around 70, not sure what you consider larger or moderate. They are a soul winning, community involved church so if you plan to show up and disappear in the crowd - never mind. PM for more info.

To clarify my point about snorting and spitting.. You ALL know what I mean.. Preaching heavy on screaming and light on message?? Gimme a break here.

This forum needs a progressive to con rating system. 1 to 10. 1 being you don't believe in going to the the doctor, only wear skirts dragging the floor and all long sleeves. 10 being, you believe anyone can do absolutely anything they want because it's "covered" by grace. Everyone should have to post their number.

Not really, I hate labels. Most of us are in the middle somewhere, why argue a point here or there??

For the record, I am probably a 6, a little slanted more toward grace than works. I go to movies, have dozens of TVs, and believe in living our faith and living out Matt 25 is more important than any passage in Deut.

Sounds like your closer to 10 to me.

Someone who goes to movies is not an Apostolic but a backslider. Just saying.

I truly believe this forum is hopeless. You say someone who goes to the movies to see a CLEAN movie is a backslider, yet you have preachers and pastors speaking at the biggest conferences who turn out to be involved in only God knows what. (I certainly don't need or want to know).. I am 4th generation Apostolic, sir, and I believe this message with everything in me. Jesus cares far less whether I see a Disney movie as he does that I LOVE right and be His light to this world. ..John 13:35

Maybe some of you need to read Mathew 23.. as well as Mathew 25.

I am not going to get drawn into this petty discussion any longer. Thanks to those who offered valid suggestions. I am frequently in Cleveland on business and just looking for a place to go when I'm there.

what if he/she does not go to movies but brings movies to his/her home by way of a dvd player or computer or cell phone or iPad?

Amen to that Brother. He just wants to go to a church with No Conviction. Probably can't submit himself under authority..

Take Deacon's suggestion. I can validate the Bucklands are good people.

Are you kidding me?? If you knew me even in the slightest, you would never say that. We so quickly paint people with a very broad brush.

I am not be coy here but...Please, please, please, I beg you...re-read Mathew 23. Honestly, with an open heart, ask yourself, does this apply to me? Pray and ask God to show you IF you if it applies to you. Allow God to speak to you.

Why would you tell TN Musicman to lighten up when he was the one who was attacked first? He asked a simple question. Looking for a church. Instead of answering (with a good attitude), some chose to judge and attack him. I don't understand that kind of "love". Good grief!
