Those terms are not legally enforceable, but then most contracts aren't. The penalty for breaking the terms of a lease isn't arrest. Such a contract is a mutually exclusive agreement--I don't have to follow the rules but they don't have to provide me with a place to live. If we both follow the rules of the agreement then everything's kosher. In other words, the church can't force a tenant to get a drug test, but failure to do so could terminate the agreement. Does the tenant have legal recourse after termination? Yes he does, but having signed that agreement won't work in his benefit should he choose to do so.
