Question Amish: Out of Order

Have you seen this show? It's about Amish people who switch over to the Pentecostal Church. The Pentecostal people appear to be very strict (long hair, dresses, no make-up, etc).

Hoovie, I'd really like your opinion on this program especially. But anyone else's is also welcome.

You can see some here. http://channel.nationalgeographic.co...episode-guide/

I would be interested in knowing which episode you saw tonight.

Re: Amish: Out of Order

Did they mention "Pentecostal" ?

Most of this is filmed about 1 to 2 hrs from my home.
He said he went on a "road trip" and met some faith communities in IN and other states. I know there a good sized OP group in IN that dresses and lives like the Amish for the most part.

The one's I saw were not Pentecostals, I thought they were Baptist.

Re: Amish: Out of Order

Apparently he met different people in separate episodes. Some may have been Pentecostals and I missed it.

That is what I think. Perhaps that particular episode was about Pentecostal/Amish.

Re: Amish: Out of Order

It's not about switching religions, it's about those that leave the order, and he is trying to help them adjust. And he wants to reconnect with his Mom, as he is pretty much being shunned. It's interesting to say the least.

Re: Amish: Out of Order

Hoovie, do Amish not believe Jesus is the Son of God?
