When the owner of this site had more discretionary time, there was a more distinct structure to this ministry as you propose. It wasn’t a “church” per se but there was a presbytery of sorts of three polygynous men that directed the direction of...

A bird in hand is worth two in the bush. We’ve seen plenty of lives play out in disaster over the years on this site because men discovered a mature doctrine and pursued it with youthful reckless abandon.

And if the first one is on shakey ground, taking a second may fare no better. I wrote my own vows for my first marriage and they were a combination of Bible verses, so I didn't have to deal with this unbiblical vows issue. However, as far as I...

The monogamy vow is a little bit of all of those options. Vows in general should be kept. A wife has no authority to enforce a vow on her husband. A husband has the authority to instruct his wife to release him from that vow. The doctrinal case...

That dude should have stayed there and looked for a job as a bricklayer there! As far as a soul mate, local congregations abound!

We have hired a teenage nanny from the church. Hmmm, come to think of it, that was before I realized polygyny is not a sin! Maybe I should have kept her contact info. Oh and if anybody here in the Central Texas area needs a good nanny, my wife...

Why don't you just take this to that new thread before we give @The Revolting Man more work to do?

I sold some fruit trees a few years back to a man and his son who were from the middle east. The younger man's wife was also from that culture and thought it was strange that here in America people spend so much time in isolation in "their room."...

There's a country song I heard once that had the lyric "love grows best in little houses, with fewer walls to separate." I respect that others may have different arrangements, but part of the beauty and attraction to this for me is community...

While I might disagree with multiple roofers, I disagree even stronger with reeducation camps.

Well when it comes to tents, I can understand why they might be separate, because it would take a revival sized tent to house that many people.

I am one of the most pervasive beaters of the one roof drum. More than one roof makes the idea of separate families all the easier. No thank you. No separate families, no competition, no my kids vs her kids. None of it. One family, one roof...
