Oh the stories I could tell. As Bugs would say "What a stinker!".

LOL! There is a church in our area, not UPCI, where the pastor makes the people pay tithes if they buy a house, car, etc. I guess they call that their "increase". I would feel so trapped and smothered under this type of ministry. He also has a relative use software that tracks what his saints view on their computers - calling it accountability.
I like what I heard a preacher say once, "You're a big boy, you're a big girl. I don't have to tell you everything you can and cannot do, everything you can and cannot watch."
