Re: T.F. Tenney at the Journey (Mark Johnston's)
Checked out the site a little;
1. I know I am getting old because the lead pastor looks like a teenager to me.
2. Is this a UPC church? If so it has the first pastor I have seen with facial hair
3. I don't think Elder Epley will be preaching there anytime soon as the first pic I saw under the "vision" button was that of a bobbed haired woman and she was smiling as if she thinks she is making it to heaven!

CC1, it is a growing trend.
I see it more and more.

CC1 -
I'm the "bobbed haired woman" you are referring to in the website, and I AM going to heaven by the grace of God. Shame on you for judging me based on a snapshot on a website. I really wanted to lay into you in my response, but then I remembered a quote I once read, "Judging the judgemental only makes you judgemental" and that's not what I want to be and that's not what Christ wants me to be. So I'll leave it at this: Yes, I was angry when I first read that, but I forgive you and I'll be praying for you. I only ask that you please use better discernment next time.

LOL!!!! I was being ironic in my post. I am one of those UPC folks who went "charismatic" as they say about 26 years ago. I absolutely do not belivee there is any biblical prohibtion against a woman cutting her hair and my wife has been cutting hers for a very long time.
Those who have been around AFF for very long know that I am against the clothesline mentality of Old Time Pentecost and the misapplication of scriptures to try to justify unbiblical / extra biblical "standards".
I wrote my post about your churches website as if I were writing from an old time Pentecostal perspective trying to be ironic. I am sorry you took me for real.

Re: T.F. Tenney at the Journey (Mark Johnston's)
Jentezen is a Trinitarian--meaning on TBN and baptizes in titles with Jesus name in there too. He is a dynamic preacher. Think Anthony Mangun they are similar, but Jentezen does get as loud all the time.

EA, does the facial hair thing bother you from a disobedience stand point?

Not at all.
There is no prohibition in the Bible. And there is no prohibition in the UPC's bylaws and Artcles of Faith.

Interesting! It is a big NO NO where I live.
FTR: I agree with you on this.
My husband has a goatee and I LOVE IT. But he is not allowed to participate in any leadership roles (i.e. teach, choir, usher and so on) b/c of it. However at this time he is not interested in doing these things - for other reasons all together.
