I love this list.

Another one.

Going camping means going to camp meeting and youth camp.

Yes...that is the truth. I was shocked to find out the world's idea of camping was not Buckeye Lake Camp Meeting!:lol

Blessings, Rhoni

Awesome list, Rhoni!! Made me laugh and remember!:killinme

Instead of "You Might Be a Red Neck", someone could do this as "You Might Be a Pentecostal" if...

Funny list and I can relate.

I believe we had a whole thread on NFCF like this - - we can just add to Rhoni's list!!

You Know You're Pentecostal When......

..you address everyone by Sister or Brother

when a preacher is accused of going charismatic for starting prayers "Dear Heavenly Father..."

....when you miss a couple services and everyone starts asking, "are they backslid."

A few wisps of facial hair indicates one getting cold in the Lord... but only on men!
