I just remember thinking if that church wasn't strict enough already I would be up a creek without a boat when they changed, lol!
It was right about then we joined the 'weak church'... Someone suggested we look at Grace- affectionately known as the 'backslidder church'... I'm still leery... Maybe, maybe... Dunno. We're going to visit a Sabbath keeping church Sat... maybe Grace Sunday... Maybe a homechurch mid week, it's really far away but so is everything when you live in the boonies.
Be nice if it was like in the old days where there was just one community church and people just HAD to blend... uh-oh... I'm sounding like Joell

Yes WPF came into being over "TV Advertising" - funny because TV is quickly becoming old media, and no great departures occurred with the internet.
FWIW, many who thought they were departing did not and a number that did depart came back to the UPC - including their best theologian Talmage French.
You REALLY DO live in the boonies if homechurch is really far away!! LOL!
Oh, and AMEN to a single community church... We drive an hr to go to church (Sundays only)
