    I wish the mainline Protestants hadn’t all jumped off the cliff they way they mostly have. But just try and find a good Methodist church that still uses the old Cokesbury Hymnal. On a side note, being Eastern Orthodox I’m not sure I’d call that “old time religion” lol. But it really is a great scene.

    I noticed that the women stand on one side and the men on the other. Used to be the pattern in medieval days and in many parts of Africa still is the custom.

  5. Ad Orientem says:

    It remains the custom in many Orthodox churches as well.

    “twas the custom in many LCMS and Christian Reformed even in the 50s!
