I think watching a football game in the church is crossing the line. I even think cancelling church service for the event is going too far.
Most churches in America doesn't have evening services on Sunday.

This trend is growing in the Apostolic Churches

Also, we are having a revival this month and our church will be advertising on TV.

We recently had a new convert stand up in church and testify that when his wife saw our pastor talking during the commercial she felt an urgency to come to our church. They were both filled with the Holy Ghost and are now members of our church.

I am so thankful for the day and time that we live in. Our children have changed the 'face' of Apostolicism. Now, when you walk into an Apostolic church- you see diversity, and you really cannot tell, outwardly, who is saint, and who is sinner. THANK GOD.

Nowadays, if you walk into a church where all look 'the part'- then you have undoubtably walked into a church that needs a revival of souls!!!!

JMHO
I think it was Jesus that said "By their fruits you shall know them". You can't tell by just the outward appearance, not that there is anything wrong with looking good/clean/resecptable/holy/rightousness on the outside.

that is a growing trend for sure.

we still have sunday night. many who condemn those who do not, probably have a low key sunday morning and sunday night is THE NIGHT. but when you have a sunday morning where you pull all the stops out and pour 100% energy into outreach and choir , preaching,etc, it's hard to come back at night and repeat the same thing over.

You really think its fair to compare homosexuality (which is a SIN) with riding motorcycles and wearing leather (neither of which are sins)?

Come on, Thad.
