On our website, I warn that men taller than me cannot attend. My wife also wants me to put on that any women with breast enhancements that cause them back problems or men to have neck problems from snapping it around cannot join the church. I will defer to wisdom on this.

I thought of that…it's kind of a silly idea to me that a church should need a mortgage. Not too "Acts Church" sounding.

that's a big one dude. We totally ignore that. Maybe it's because a lot of churches are in debt too?

I Ddon’t quite know how to phrase it…but spending habits/consumerism/debt/over-loaning.

I think this selfish attitude of gratuitous pleasure through horrendously immoral loan taking and lending needs to be addressed. Credit cards (high interest loan cards) spending more than we make, not saving…even the spirituality of work. Work is viewed as a means to an end, not as a mimicking of God’s creative work that should be a sweet sacrifice.

ha ha, i mean not specifics like who do they recommend you vote for or anything or what party does the pastor align himself with (some churches would love to have that and some already do i’m sure of it). for example if it were my church’s website we would say something like:
“blankety blank church does not endorse any candidate or party and advises its members to prayerfully consider how they will partake (if at all) in the process which is the American government.”
something like that except probably written a bit more coherently ha ha.
this may not be as much an issue in CA but here in the south many pastors try to use their church as a political force, which is not biblical whatsoever. (rant over ha ha)

well an obvious one would be alcohol i suppose.
birth control might be another.
also, that specific local churches stance on how much a local church should or should not be involved in the political/government process.
