He doesn't preach against beards. There are a few men there who have facial hair - goatee, beard. Again, not a heaven/hell issue, just a preference for leadership position.

You may view it this way, I do not. Most churches, even non-holiness churches, have requirements for ministry.
Again, I have no issue with his request. I have followed leadership requirements in the past, and have submitted to dress codes for employers all my working life. If I'm willing to do that for secular employers, I should be even more willing to do it in ministry.
