"Let God be the one to align any pastoral("man of god") teaching that is off", seems to be the primary opinion of the upc church, "in the pulpit and out". One minute I enjoy the preaching, next minute I'm thinking I can't listen another minute. We stll attend UPC, even after both getting "demoted" out of ministries a few years ago for a beard and my wife trimming her hair(after 6 months of prAyer and then heeding our dr suggestion w neck knots from the weight). It has been extremely difficult for us, however I fell that I'll have issues with teaching wherever we go, probably worse elsewhere. So we have not left.
Just my brief 1 cent input...

I don't think Jason has responded to this yet, but I think he has said pretty much the same as what you were saying when you said, "I feel that I'll have issues with teaching wherever we go, probably worse elsewhere." Difference being he would be returning after having discovered this (if he actually returns and finds it tolerable)
