I do own Elvis Presley's 'How Great Thou Art', but I do not listen to it often. Rather funny, but a little sad.

God Bless

Oh this is my favourite collection so far.
So many trains of thought (scuse pun).
I'm convinced the woman in the robot pic goes to the same hair-dresser as the singing Rickey family. That, or they are both aliens from Mars Attacks.

It's a good thing for Bennett and Sarah that He's only a prayer away. Wouldn't want to get stuck like that if you had to travel.

Are the Sammy Hall singers concerned about what the Christian Astronauts got up to on the moon landing?

Rodney Arias = Wilmer!!!

I sat for a full minute looking at the Country Church. For some reason I picture them all as a trapeze troupe.

Finally - Mr Van Impe! *swoons away*

Hey man, are you messing with Elvis? :-)

WHERE do you find these???

LOL, thanks for making my morning coffee enjoyable, as usual!

P.S. Van Impe is an accordianist, THAT explains a lot!

Do you think that they threw the evil twins under that sweet Chevy and Dwight is reading Romans 10:9-10 and Dwayne is bringing the gas to light them up? Really ... those jackets and bow ties are sweeet.

Rick Warren has the only copy left of You Can Be a Successful Church Leader.

Pyromaniac (Phil Johnson) owns the only copy of Build Your Own Fire.

Bennet and Sarah practice eye contact when they pray.

Hmmm...a picture of the most dysfunctional family is included. The boy is on ritalin for ADD so he is rather wooden these days, and the other child is gender confused and seems rather robotic. The mother's hairstyle indicates she is controlling. The father has a nervous smile.

Apparently the puppet works no matter what your theme. How the heck did those scary things get so popular?

Where do you get these hilarous old LP covers? My vote is for the puppet.

I'd love to hear a sample of the Van Impe's album. I can just hear Rexella singing the newspaper headlines and Jack playing a polka tune on his accordian while he fires off 86 proof-texts a minute.

Look at the guy on the very right of the Country Church album...didn't know that Ron Jeremy got his start singing Gospel. Sad.

I was at a convention this year where the Good Twins were singing... I was really hoping 'Good' was their name and not a modifier.

Back when Mom picked my clothes, I had duds like the Country Church guys. I'm pretty sure I never wore them together, though. That is one bad ensemble.

Whoa! Country Church! Cant... loookk..... away....

P.S. Congrats on number 10 of this wonderful posting theme!

So where do I get a ticket for Heaven's Choo Choo--or do I not need a ticket, I just get on board?

I believe Bennett & Sarah are praying for relief of their stiff necks.

These posts always cause a strange curiosity in me.

You can still buy Beyond the Blue by the Christian Astronauts.

Rodney Arias Jr. (yes, he is THE Jr.) has a better haircut than Dad.

Yes "Good" is their name (whew!), not an adjective, and they are still singin'.

Reverend W. Leo Daniels is still talking about Hell.

Is this the same Dr. Paul Benjamin? Same racket, anyway.

I couldn't find anything on that Elvis guy.

These get more painful every time. Jack van Impe with an accordian is amazing.

Jack Van Impe does everything accordian to His will.
