Earlier today, at Inside United: Realtime, a new letter addressed to both the ministry and the members was put out, “Dec. 23 Letter to Ministers and Members”. Unlike some other letters, it is addressed to “Dear Ministers and Members”. I initally thought about commenting on it, and then I decided…
Shadows of WCG Next Generation posted the preliminary results of a poll. AFAIK, the poll is still open for voting, though. While I don’t endorse everything on the site, “J” has, at least IMO, bent over backwards to give credit where credit is due and vice-versa. The poll really is…

Facebook UWS site reports are that Roger West, Roy Demarest and Clyde Kilough have resigned today. Previously, Demarest was suspended.

Peter Eddington of UCG’s Media and Communications Services posted today about the “Illegal Use of United Church of God Name and Logo” on “anonymously prepared letters that are critical of the Council of Elders”, obviously referring to the 3 New GCE Documents posted on the AC website. I thought it…
On the Facebook UCG United We Stand discussion board is a page for “I Support the Letter”. This signature page is to show support for the letter that the elders who signed the Open Letter to Dennis Luker. Granted, it is informal, but it is very symbolic. It only had…
