A wee little man can’t say, I’m sorry. A big man owns his mistakes and apologizes.
A wee little man trusts himself and his own discernment. A big man is humble enough to know that he needs the counsel and input of others.

Well he got a COGICM doctrine question in there on his poll. About the importance of men wearing a beard. 20% respondents agree with the COGICM statement on the beard, 79% disagreed.
"We believe that men grow beards by order of creation. Wearing a beard indicates respect for God's order."

I'm not uninterested in these subjects you've posted, but videos are terrible format for me while at home or working.

I frequently do this, but then find that often 45 minutes of audio can be condensed down into something that is a 5 minute read. Then I wonder if perhaps I should be using my time and attention span to read other things...
Holdemans have a somewhat unusual view of the beard that it is equivalent to the Christian woman's devotional covering.

There was or I should say IS an Amish community in Maine who of course have beards AND mustaches (a friend lived in that community years ago. They said if it grows there it should show there. I can see that point of view as it seems Gods design.JohnH wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2026 8:44 pmI frequently do this, but then find that often 45 minutes of audio can be condensed down into something that is a 5 minute read.

I use the same rationale for why to not bathe or shower. It's obviously God's design for us to smell like sweat and stinky feet.

That’s not a good rational when being “clean” is taught in Scripture but that was cute.

It’s possible to have AI create a transcript of the video and then summarize it. Might be helpful for someone to post those.

I got to wonder. There’s some races that don’t have a lot of facial hair or almost none at all so how do they look at that?R7ehr wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2026 8:12 pm Well he got a COGICM doctrine question in there on his poll.
