Here's an exerp from the article......


Not all Pentecostals keep their hair long, said the Rev. Ken Gurley, senior pastor of First Church Pearland, the church Skillern attends. Even in his congregation there are women — and men — with many different hairstyles.
The teaching about hair comes from 1 Corinthians 11:2-16 in the New Testament, the pastor said. And the practice of not cutting hair and modest dress is encouraged, he said. Men are encouraged to keep their hair short, based on the same Bible passage.
"We don't see this as the single greatest proof that a woman has a walk with God," Gurley said. "We just feel like it is being faithful to our holiness heritage, and in a world where so much has changed, and not necessarily for the better, it shows our reverence to God."
