Cowboy Church
Posted by the peacock on June 8, 2007
Have you ever heard of this? I hadn’t until my dad (a retired Baptist preacher) told me about the one he and my sisters attend.
Evidently, people can take their horses to this ‘church’ and remain seated on them during the entire service.
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO DIVINE SERVICE? But then, we’re not talking about anything even remotely close to Lutheran Worship now, are we….
My mom’s greatest disappointment is that there is no choir she can sing in. Bet they still have altar call though.
I wonder if they have poop-scoopin ushers?
hmmmmm…..
Feud for thought….. that is if yah bring yer rifle….
Wonder if the preacher ever worries about preachin’ too much law with all those rifles in church…..
On a more serious note, it’s sad that these fad ‘churches’ are teaching so much error, one being that you can receive God’s salvation without and separate from the Holy Spirit.
For more on that topic please read my post entitled Feeling the Spirit?

You know, my in-laws are ranchers out west. At their church, you wear your Sunday-go-to-meetin’ clothes with your Sunday-go-to-meetin’ cowboy hat (yup, there’s a special hat). And you go to church in either the pickup truck or the family car. You don’t bring your horse anymore and even if you would ride your horse, the horse stays OUTSIDE. Oh, and the Sunday-go-to-meetin’ hat comes off upon entering the church building.
