First off he was still mad at us for getting married without his "permission" and he told us that he could and would not bless our move and that furthermore he and that pastor are personal friends. So we went back to our pews and shut our mouths until we had enough.
I am so glad that he did that and I owe him a thank you because if not we would not be where we are today and much like you we believe that we are where we are suppose to be we have seen God move in our midst and do things that would not have happened if we would have stayed.
We love our AG church and it is as much Pentecostal as any UPC church I have been in. It is a large church maybe about the size of your church. Our church does things with the least of these in our community , state and the world. The Gospel is being preached souls are being saved and the great commission is being and walked out.

God bless you brother. As you know, when my husband had open heart surgery and was very ill, we attended an AOG church as it is 5 mins from my house. I love the people there, they ministered to me greatly when I was going thru a difficult time. There is a difference in belief that I can't reconcile and that compels me to make the longer drive to the church I now attend. That and in prayer and fasting God gave me strong direction and confirmation to attend there. I will always consider you a precious brother, as I consider them precious to me, and hold them up daily in my prayers.
