The Fallout Continues

I received word that a District Superintendent stated today that he was "shaken to his soul" because so many churches nationwide are disaffiliating from the UPCI. Whole sections are disaffiliating all over the country. It is said that TLC, who has been UPC for over 50 years, is turning in his card. The DS stated, "it's much bigger than anyone thought!"

I have not verified this, so it is to be taken that way.

I heard from another source that TLC and 1st Church are pulling out! It's almost like a frenzy right now!

Of course, my opinion is that it's for the best in the long run for the health of the UPCI!

The ironic thing is that in its Hey Day FPC with the JCM talent could have had the absolute best TV commericals or programming!!

I would have liked to have seen a program or ad featuring the JCM choir of about 1978 with some good preaching / teaching. For that era no one could touch FPC / JCM for quality.

Is CC more or less conservative than TLC?

He and I talked for 2 hrs at GC before the vote. He told me that he would have supported a resolution that allowed the ORG to run commercials. He also told me that he would not leave the UPC over this. So unless he has changed, and I doubt it, this is not true.
