Thank you for sharing concerning the early years Indiana. It brought back pleasant memories of the glorious church life. I remember well those turning years of 74 to 75 when "the ministry" started to become the real center. That was the beginning of the downward slide. There was such a freshness in those early days which was gone form 1975 and on. CMW......don't take this as a personal critisism but the sponateous moving of the Spirit among us was gone before you even arrived. I'm not discounting your personal experience but anyone who was not in the church life from 1974 and ealier will never know what a newness of Spirit there was among us. The organization that came in over time quenched the moving of God's Spirit among us. It reminds me of the account in Ezekiel when the glory of God slowly departed from God's house....the temple.
