Expect straightforward preaching, hymn-based music, and close-knit fellowship with potlucks and fifth-Sunday sings. Many organize benevolence and food drives for neighbors during planting season and around the county fair.

Corydon Pentecostal Churches

I really wanted to go that direction. God's like, man, you don't understand. I'm keeping you for something. I'm keeping you from doing something. maybe maybe there's something that you have prayed about and prayed about, but man, God did not answer. I don't know about you, but I'm very thankful for some some unanswered prayers in my life. God, if you would just, you would just. And God's like, no, I can't. I can't. You don't know what's on the other side of that. So I'm not gonna answer that.”

I gave you a lot of scripture for that point. Resurrection requires the cross. In order to be raised from the dead, you have to die. And Paul says, that's not even true. It is true ultimately, like, one day when you're literally die. But as a Christian, we have to learn if we're gonna grow more like Christ to die daily, he says.

Are you willing to be uncomfortable this morning and step out of your seat and come?"”

If you're if you're here today and you're broken, he says, bring your brokenness. If you're here today and you say, man, there's failures, he says, you know what? Bring me your failures.
