I'm still proud of my Apostolic roots, but I haven't attended an Apostolic church since the 1970s. It's kinda hard to explain.
I miss the good old days (or at least MY good old days) of Pentecost. I miss the music. I'm sick of all these Integrity! Hosanna and Hillsong praise and worship choruses. I want to hear a worship leader sing Are You Washed in The Blood with a hard Pentecostal 4/4 beat. I miss Sisters with dresses and no make-up, and beehive hairdos. I miss people showing up to church with a Bible in one hand, and a tambourine in the other. Guess I may have to take a road trip to St Louis or Chicago to visit my good friends Richie and Dennis Mostyn.

WElcome, Chris! I'm in Nebraska, so we're neighbors, somewhat!
