that is what I am trying to express...
I am all the way for helping people and my laptop is full of things I have done for classes.
However I have been in services when statements were made...a woman's place is in the bedroom....and all kinds of foolish things.
I think (this is only a personal opinion) that there is far too much ignorance in Pentecost...
I paid a woman doctor to come talk to my ladies...of course in some circles I would be crucified...especially since she was not a Pentecostal...however my ladies did not need a Pentecostal they needed some advice from a doctor...
I hope I am making sense....

That's excellent, Sister A.

Yeah...I don't really want my children having sex ed on Sunday mornings, and I don't want to endure blunt comments in a mixed crowd. However, the occasional casual reference to a healthy sex life doesn't hurt anyone--just as long as it doesn't get explicit.

That is just BAD, nwlife. You should be ASHAMED!

Plus - I'm not sure I think sex needs to be "preached" about, but more in a teaching/learning enviornment in classes - - not to the whole church on Sunday.
Bad example - - pastor here in Memphis set up a bedroom on the platform, wore his silk pj's and his wife came in wearing her bedroom attire - - he got pretty plain with the folks, but it was SUNDAY MORNING.....

I heard about that...(I think I might have watched a youtube clip, but I don't remember for sure). Two things:
1. Kudos for trying to address the issue, but
2. It was in REALLY bad taste.
I'm sure there were a lot of really uncomfortable people in that crowd--people who didn't EVER want to think about their pastor and his wife, well...in that light.

Pastor A.R. Williams Shows The Women Of His Church 'How to Keep Their Husbands So The Hoe Don't Get Him'
Members of World Overcomers were shocked on last Sunday morning when they entered the place where they assemble to worship God. In the pulpit was a Queen sized bed draped in burgundy and gold.
Members were wondering why the place that normally Pastor Alton R. Williams preaches the word of God from had turned into a large bedroom, when he entered wearing a robe and pajama pants with his bible in hand. the lights are dimmed, mode music is playing,Williams at this point lays on the bed reading from the Songs of Solomon.
While still reading the bible his wife Sherrilyn enters the sanctuary wearing a long red feathered seductive fitting gown. Mrs. Williams very seductively walks across the pulpit turn bedroom and sits on the bed next to her husband. She closes his bible and begins to rub on him, and then lefts him from the bed and very passionately embraces and kisses him. Pastor Williams whose Sunday morning freak session is designed to save marriages tells the women in the congregation 'This is how to keep your husband so the Hoe don't get him'.
In my opinion A.R. Williams has gone to far, the pastor who spent $260,000 to build a statue that reminds you of the Statue Of Liberty has lost his God focus and now become an entertainer willing to do anything to keep fleecing his flock of their money so that he can continue to live his luxury lifestyle.
In a time that people in the community need the Word of God for deliverance from their plights by allowing the word to get them up and motivated to make changes in their lives, this fool wants to hold Sunday morning sex classes. What about salvation and the saving of souls? I guess with New Directions Church being less than a mile away Williams is losing members which means that he is losing dollars.
