JCP, > Is YOUR church pure Tenchy? My church is all about forgiveness and reconciliation. What use is it to admit only "pure" people? Tenchusatsu

Before his resignation, Beard oversaw a church ministry called twentyfourseven, a nine-month training program for young adults in missionary work and leadership. He has led mission trips to 53 countries and had a role in this year's church Easter drama. 24/7??? What a name for a training program. In 2002, Beard was reprimanded by church officials after he staged a missionary training drill using fake assault weapons. A SWAT team was put on alert after a passing motorist thought the guns were real. Brendle said that incident played a role in Beard's departure. Was this a church, or the military with an abu Ghraib-like porno section on the side? At least neos are consistent. Beard's church biography states he has a business degree from Oral Roberts University - Haggard's alma mater - and a master's degree in Christian counseling. He previously worked as a psychotherapist at a leading mental institution, the biography states. Birds of a feather?
