There's God's way, then there's the upci's way. Those who don't do it the upci way are usually on the receiving of the criticism from the self righteous know it alls. Look how much criticism the Manguns have taken about the revival God has poured out in Alexandria. I can't believe someone would take issue with Micky Mangun singing the National Anthem at an event.
I know a district official who couldn't keep a new convert in his church even if he tried. Yet he is more than willing to criticize the church 20 miles down the road for being charismatic. He should than his lucky stars he got our sickly sheep. About the only thing they are good for is a good offering. They don't do much soul-winning. They are too busy tearing down the preacher to do so.
While there are exceptions to the rule, the upci is still largely made up of all talk and no action type of people who easily criticized the successful. Thank God there is a generation rising to the occassion which understands the mandate GOD has given them. They are not afraid to take the church to the next level. I'm glad I'm in a upci church that moving forward.

You are kind of tearing down the UPCI yourself, and that would include the preachers.
