There are probably hundreds maybe even thousands of towns across the nation where the UPC would gladly welcome a Home Missions church so there is no reason for you to compete with a local UPC pastor who wants no competition.
That is mean or were you joking?

This is what carnality does.

Our city has 70,000 people in it.
They won't allow you to reach any of the 70,000?

I agree with the fundamental doctrine of the UPCI, always have, always will.
The org itself is not bad, but in an org that size, you will find some carnality, greed, and other things that make it look bad.

But my attempts to be a part of the organization in which I was raised and have tremendous appreciation and respect for, have up to this point in my life been unfruitful.
That is so sad.

Quote:
However I have been asked by a large non-UPC group (many, if not all the ministers are ex-upc) to fellowship and eventually join their group.
That would be cool if it is God's will.

Should I do this?
What saith the Lord?

Would like for everyone to pray for a friend of mine's grandmother

She tried to commit suicide and she thinks that she is useless and that nobody loves her.

Thanks and I posted it in the wrong place, because I was talking to her while I was in this thread.

Hmmm..not to detract from this but that is sort of how I feel...though I have never tried to commit suicide.

Is she alone?

My plans have been foiled. Partly my fault, maybe like 1/8 my fault. Ha.
Anyway, I may be leaving soon.
