Undaunted, Kip has now aimed his sights at Phoenix and San Francisco.

In his latest sermon, he explains that he is not drawing lines in Phoenix, God is. According to him, the church in Phoenix has become lukewarm and he is only doing his Christian duty in helping out the Chloupek’s splinter group. He lists those going, including noted personalities from Portland.

The Phoenix situation has, apparently, caused some heatburn in Euguene. A couple there had issues with what Kip was doing in Phoenix. He went to Eugene, as the overseeing evangelist, to straighten it out. It was not clear to me how it was resolved, so I will not speculate.

San Francisco, apparently, is now evil because of the name change to the Bay Area Christian Church. Despite a strikingly similar theology to his own, the new Handbook ($12 + postage) apparently does not mention missions work to Kip’s liking. For this reason, they are apparently lukewarm as well.

Of couse, this isn’t drawing a line, either, this is God’s righteous judgement on them.

Who’s next?
