Yeehaw! It's Time To Praise Jesus!
Filed under: Etc.
Christian? Cowboy?
Tired of your regular Sunday morning?
Then we've got the church for you!
After riding a bucking bronco, you can go hit up the barn and ask God to forgive you for hitting the moonshine and lassoing someone at the farm.
The "Cowboy Church" movement is about 40 years old and gaining popularity, with new churches starting up all the time.
Members believe it's the "come as you are" atmosphere and "an out-of-the-box method" that draw newcomers to the church. Others think it's the brief devotions and absence of pressure to donate that rope in folks turned off to traditional church.
Folks come dressed in cowboy hats and boots, and learn about God through horse-tamings, deer antlers, bull riding, and country band performances.
Some congregations take place in rodeo arenas, while others occur in Western-themed sanctuaries.
If you join today, you might even get baptized in a horse trough!
Gotta love it. My mother always taught us that you did not need a church. You can just walk pray wherever you were. Our connection to our maker had nothing to do with buildings or organizations but is a very private thing. So, ride on cowboys and girls and enjoy.
I'm sure it is better than Scientology!!
This is different…. well whatever it takes 4 ppl 2 know God is fine by me….
great. torture another animal. just great.
Well slap my ass and call me a buckaroo! I think I've found Jesus!

Fuck animals. I hope after each one is systematically worn out after giving us a pleasurable visual performance, they are ground up into fine meat, slapped on a grill and ingested with a violent fervor.
This isn't really news. I grew up around rodeo, they've always had cowboy church. These guys are on a tour, and wake up hundreds of miles away from their hometowns. They have service at the rodeo grounds to give rodeo cowboys an opportunity to attend church when it would otherwise be impossible to be an active member anywhere else. They sit in the stands and have worship, don't make it sound so hillbilly. For some people it isn't about "religion". You don't need an alter to stay true to what you believe.
Cowboy church follows rodeos. If the rodeo is in a small town or large, it happens at the venue that Sunday morning. Perez, you are a moron. And how is this celebrity gossip? It's actually pretty cool.
perez, we can C you in Brokeback Mountain

That's not making Jesus/Christianity better; it's just making Rodeo stupider.
We have a chapter of Cowboy Church here in East Texas. They aren't bad folks, actually from my understanding.
BTW, you dont have to be christian, they are pretty non denominational. I am on a rodeo committee and we do this every year at our rodeo. Its kinda nice, and I am not even religious.
Re: aquarian66 –
FYI, rodeos do NOT torture animals, these animals buck for 8 seconds, MAYBE twice a weekend, they live on FARMS with PASTURES, and are fed only high quailty food. There are ALWAYS veteranarians on site to make sure the animals are ok. And they are not trained to buck, their are BREED for it. Its natural for them. And when the horses, calfs, and bulls get tired, they get to retire to a pasture and do nothing for the rest of their lives but eat. Get over yourselves. These animals are taken better care of than most in peoples back yards!!
i bet God loves how they abuse and torture animals and then go ask for forgiveness. yuck i hate cowboys and cowgirls!!!
fuck church
Re: zurfergrlz – are you retarted?
i went to cowboy church at the tucson rodeo with my boyfriend it was a bit strange. it was this old guy singing country bible songs. it was quite commical
That just sounds like a bunch of Bullshit! Yeeha!!!
Re: LG Patroness of The Arts! – Hi LG! Shits with hats on!
get over myself? lol. yea. okay.
Hypocrites, like so many of these hardcore Christians are. They go to cowboy church in the morning, then drink a gallon of whiskey and hook up with some random rodeo groupie that night.
Oh yes. Somehow, deer antlers that have been extracted from dead wildlife always makes me feel closer to God.
Well it's better than Scientology but not much.
aquarian66 is right! It's tourture to be that bronco or bull.
Just spread'n the horseshit hip deep!
"Cowboy Church"???? WTF????!!! is that a cult or something????
Perez…why don't you actually research this one and give credit to the people who pretty much founded it. You need to correct your information….it was founded in Monroe, Wa by Linda and Joe Knight of the Rock Church. Get your shit straight.
Now young man that ain't nice.
Tell everyone the truth now they make the decision.
Prayer changes people and things!
I have entertainment church so what!!It's 09 you gotta go cowboys love Jesus too!!
Old Lady Pate
Why always the rude comments about Christianity or sometimes even Jews but you don't have the gonads to ridicule our little prayer rug friends? IS IT BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT THEY MIGHT DO TO YOU??
That's awesome. worship when and where you can! HEre in Hawaii, there's lots of churches that have that come-as-you-are attitude. I was baptized on an Easter Sunday at Kailua Beach, with a bikini on under my shirt! Pray on!
hey I just went to one of those this sunday after the junior state fair show. thats how we rope em' in for jesus here in Tejas! haha.
