The schedule rules, and it doesn't allow for any flexability in regards to the personalities or needs of those being scheduled. In my church, the "strict schedule" crowd is prominent, and they say that because God favors order it means that He wants everything like child care, personal lives, etc. placed on a strict schedule, and they take Bible verses out of context to support their claims. In reality, the schedule rules them and becomes their god because it won't allow for anything outside of the schedule. The schedule ends up causing more harm then good. Of course, I am finding more and more people in church who have rejected this, because it goes against the Bible and common sense.
