@wgiwf@poa.st Only ever went to one Wednesday service at a Pentecostal church on someone else’s invite. They didn’t even have kneelers: there was something to make bowing forward in prayer facing backwards easy. The service was nothing to complain about, basically an enthusiastic guided Scripture study. It was about 2/3rds Black. As far as the Sunday services, I’ll always remember, on an episode of The Journey Home a few years ago (not sure which), a convert from Pentecostalism said his former congregation had, for weeks on end, an epidemic of chicken dancing! One guy became so crazed he ran into a wall during the dance and broke his arm. While enthusiasm has its place in religion, it amazes me that some think ginning up this wild state every week is evidence they’ve received the Holy Spirit.
