By "backsliding" I assume you mean short sleeves?

Re: Pastor Shelly Hendricks Resigns
Rob Yanok just started a church in Cincinnati last year and Joel Osteen did a promo for it. It's called Gracetown, I think. So you might be thinking of it instead of this one. I think Shelly Hendrick's church was Covenant Church, unless it changed names again.

Re: Pastor Shelly Hendricks Resigns
Shelly is a friend of mine. He's a good guy. The comments about his beard and his family are really stupid since you obviously don't know him. The folksnthat got upset about the minorities in his church are racists and not Christian since those people reflected the community in which the church was located. Shelly just decided to reach the neighborhoods around the church.
Sometimes Apostolic churches carry such a large amount of dysfunction that when a transformation takes place, people can't grow with the transformation. They are damaged goods to begin with and their spiritual depth and understanding is about thimble deep. Folks miss the good ole days of youth rallies, evangelists and revivals, choirs and camp meetings. No one bothers to ask if this is where God is, and is this what He's asking of us. No, we're simply happy to exist in our little Pentecostal church culture bubble, while the neighborhood around our church hasn't a clue, while the community doesn't even know we exist.
So someone comes along and tries to follow the Lord and follow the Scripture. Comfortable church folks get uncomfortable and they take their tithes and offerings elsewhere to a church that will help preserve the church of their youth: singing 1940s hymns, dress codes from the 50s and an all white congregation...

Bob Yanok is currently in a suburb of Columbus, OH.
The Church's name was changed a while back from Covenant Apostolic to GracePointe a while back. I don't know if this was before or after the incident where a Day Care worker there was convicted of drugging at least one of the children in her care.
The Church is currently (at least it was a couple days ago when I checked) listed in the UPC web site as Covenant Apostolic

Sam, thanks for the earlier post about the history of the church SH pastor's. One note though. You keep putting an "e" at the end of Gracepoint when according to the church website there is not one.
I reckon you are just tryin' to fancy it up!
Here is a link to the church website;

You are right about that extra letter I've been adding but actually I added an "e" instead of an "i". I'm used to adding that "e" because of a local ministry here called CrossPointe
"older" guys develop habits that are hard to break
