2. If one of the pastors do not feel the relationship should progress, how should that be handled?
3. If the saved parents give their approval/disapproval, how much should that effect the pastor's opinion?
4. If one pastor is against the relationship based on a dislike of the other pastor/organization etc, is the couple in rebellion to spiritual authority if they continue their relationship?
(For the sake of discussion, assume all people involved are Apostolic but attend different churches)

Our church is kind of dealing with very issue right now. Her fiancee goes go a church that is about twenty minutes from us and our pastors don't get along with the pastor from the other church.
