It is time for patriotic Christians in Prosper, TX, and elsewhere to let the pastor and elders of this church know that their threat to disfellowship this members will not go unchallenged.

That’s why we’re so careful about the church(es) we attend and support. Only 100% independent.

Thirty years ago we attended an SBC, but never liked the idea of tithes and offerings being shared with an overseeing organization.
