Generally speaking The YBPDLN Ping List is published infrequently, however based on the exploits of the megachurch pastors posts can spike for a season.
Management will not ping members to every thread addressing megachurch pastors, but will tag articles of interest with the KEYWORD: YBPDLN.
If you would like on or off of this list please FReepmail me.

Oh?
PCUSA and UMC are both declining rapidly over this issue.
LOL
Parents don’t want their children around sex perverts, at church or anywhere else.
Once the Spirit departs a church, there is nothing left to do but call the realtors.
One thing: the Time article says they were at 800 to 1000 members before; that’s not exactly a megachurch.
Its always instructive to see whose compass is tuned to scripture and the Holy Spirit and whose is tuned to the surrounding culture. Even good people find themselves splitting the difference, and wind up in a spiritual cul-de-sac without noticing it, their faith stripped of its power.
We’re supposed to be God’s conduits to the surrounding society, we are not to be apologists for that society. Some people miss the difference, but the difference is all the difference in the world.
Serves them right, turn to perversion, you lose.
What a great story, thanks for posting and cheering me up for the day.
I love a good Suicide Story!
I sure hope parents in California take notice and begin a Massive Withdrawl of Students forcing the School System to COLLAPSE!!

If Hillary Clinton had become President every church and synagogue (but not mosque) that refused to perform same-sex marriages would have lost it’s tax exempt status.
Hey pastor how’d that rainbow thingy work out for you?
The left has infiltrated almost all the institutions of American life. Once in, they kill them from the inside, much like parasites that live in the host, and destroy them.
ANY “church” catering to this will crater. The Episcopal Church is a great example ... but they don’t learn. Organized religion seems to have become a sort of social cult. Too bad. Not the way I remember it, .... or PRACTICE it.
A megachurch is defined in some of the modern religion periodicals I've read as 1000 or more members, so it sounds like this one...might...have just barely scrapped the threshold at their peak. Regardless, if they are down to 240 as the article states, then that's a loss of roughly 75% of the congregation in only two years.
The punchline, if you will, is probably that after that false prophet pastor did what he did, the queers didn’t attend, anyhow. Those people’s lifestyle is anti-God, anti-Word of God. Who, in their right mind would EXPECT them to attend? I guess the answer is in the phrase, “in their right mind.”
Among partisan media shills, Shep and Matt hardest hit.
Was this possibly triggered by thd pastor turning queer himself?
