Well.. the concept, IMO, of weight or sin is that there are things that are wrong and then there are things that, while not wrong, are unwise.

To me this is completely unwise and is opening a door for people that the church just has no business whatsoever introducing people to or furthering their familiarity with.

I am trying to fit "power in the Blood" and "The Old Gospel Ship" into square dance format. Not seeing it...

"I'm gonna take a trip, In that good ole Gospel Ship!"

Yeah, I can see that one... need some good fiddle music though.

The mormons been square dancing in their churches for a long time. You might want to check on attending one of their services....... I'm sure you would be welcome....

Not into Square dancing myself but I have no issue with it. We are having a couples only (as in married couples) Valentines Day dance at our church.

I thought I was a pretty progressive fellow but this thread has been an eye opener.

The event isn't planned for the sanctuary as part of a worship service. It's in a multi-use hall.

I don't believe alcohol or smoking will send someone to hell either, but I don't want it going on in the church fellowship hall.

Our previous pastor, L.H. Hardwick, would never allow any type of dancing associated with the church. I guess that policy has changed! What do they say now to couples who may want dancing at their wedding reception at the church? Only square dancing?

You stiff-necked conservative!
