Re: STUNNING! UPC pastors says" NO more Blood Song
Week before last, the choral at Life did a melody of songs about the blood and they ushered in such a wonderful presence of God. I don't think that having a pastor state that the church should steer clear of singing about the blood would fly in most churches.

I think we should also do away with any songs that make a reference to water since some people are afraid of the water.

We would not want to be responsible for any anxiety attacks.

What do you think about this ? I think this would upset me too
Absurd and "seeker friendly" run amuck. BTW How many people in America are unfamiliar with the fact that Jesus died for us? Even atheists know we believe that and would not be without a clue. How many people in America have no church back ground either? Even a Muslim knows we believe Jesus died and shed his blood for us....

Sounds like a "soon-to-be-ex-UPC" pastor.
