You might be in a country church if: The call to worship is, "Y’all come on in!" The preacher says, "I’d like to ask Bubbah to help take up the offering" - and five guys stand up. A member requests to be buried in his four wheel drive truck because, "I ain’t never been in a hole it couldn’t get me out of." A singing group is known as "The OK Chorale." The church directory doesn’t have last names. The pastor wears boots. There’s no such thing as a "secret" sin. The only time folks lock their cars is during the summer - and then only so their neighbors won’t leave them a bag of squash. There’s a special fundraiser for a new septic tank. People think "rapture" is something that happens when you lift something too heavy. The cemetary is in such barren ground that people have to be buried with a sack of fertilizer to help them rise on Judgement Day. The final words of the benediction are, "Y’all come back now, ya hear!"
