well, let's see....

even pastors have TV's in their homes now.

many of the ladies, including pastor's wives, are now trimming their hair. Some to shoulder length or shorter. And I was amazed this morning at how many "hair pieces" I saw attached. There used to be a day when that would have been tabboo. I see nothing wrong with it. But it still wouldn't have been allowed 30 years ago.

Many of the ladies are wearing make-up of one sort or another.

I heard a UPC pastor speak in a sermon recently about going to pray with a group of young people from his church before they left to go prom. He said that if he prayed with them before they left, maybe they would "see his face in front of them" all night long and hopefully that would give them some strength to avoid temptation. Personally, I thought that was a GREAT idea!!

Many of the UPC churches that I am acquainted with and know people in are now allowing their saints to go to movie theaters.

I know a whole lot of Apostolic women (yes, UPC) who are now wearing pants and some even shorts, except for during church or on the platform.

Enough??
