....it just paints a superficial picture for me....where is the depth? where is the systematic teachings you speak of? instead, the ministry receives a tongue-lashing for the state-of-the-union (I am not questioning the necessity of the message...evidently, it was needed. Rather, I'm questioning the maturity of the group that had to hear this elementary teaching after 60 years)....this is an embarrassing and shameful condition.
So the message was meant the preachers that have been in the UPC 60+ years???
