There is a movement in South Florida called the House of God - Have you heard those black guys that go CRAZY on the STEEL GUITARS????? They are all from that Church! Here is a little bit about it.
The House of God Church, a black Pentecostal movement founded in 1903 by evangelist M. L. Tate. Following Tate's death in 1930, a struggle among church leaders resulted in a court order that separated the church into three "dominions." Two of them, the Keith and the Jewel dominions, adopted the lap-steel guitar as the primary instrument of church music.

i don't think I have ever heard of them ...UNLESS they are the same ones who believe in beating their children in front of the whole church to teach them a lesson?? I remember some big case about this in Atlanta.
