Many churches today that exhibit the changes I talked about would have a median age of 35-40.

The smaller the church the older the age.
No we are a 400 member progressive UPC church, but in some ways still traditional. 2 services on Sun, wed nite Study, fellowship with food, preaching against sin, shockamoo if you want to type church.

Now we do have many departments, and our youth have a very aggressive cutting edge ministry.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
