No doubt. I am sure those who didn't want change would not feel comfortable at Life Church now and needed to find a new church home.
Of course I believe that will be best for all in the long run as that will free Life Church from having dissent and friction from those who do not agree. I believe God will replace those who leave with a multiple many times that number. So both the ones leaving, Life Church, the other churches, and the Great Commission all win!

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
