hi everybody, and hi all (in case you don't classify yourself as an
everybody)		Now, beards, beards and beards...............
It has been my _opinion_ that
the first measure is one's pastor, and yes!!!!!that _does_matter, my
pastor does not teach it as wrong........Now here's the clincher, the 2nd
measure is the attitude in which it is worn. If your pastor had a change
in view, and now preaches against it, would _You_ shave it off to remain
subject to your pastor's God Given authority. 

If your view is......."He better not ever preach about it" then you need
to check your spirit, or if your attitude is....."I'd just change
churches" then again, check your heart and ask God to check it too.  

(opinions are subject to change upon Heavenly Request, or irrefutable
human evidence)<s>

Brother Andy Barnett, 

by the way........i'd like to talk to other Indiana youth pastors, or any
other youth pastors that want to exchange youth work idea's.
