Re: Church of God, The Old Days Facebook Group

Don Paulk as in one of Earl Paulk’s sons or nephews? Just curious as I know they were originally COG.

I left the Church of God – Cleveland TN group…. because… I just can’t with some of the stuff on there. I’m a moderator of that group and I can’t stand it________________The World As I See Itworldjeffreysees.blogspot.com/Revuriah’s Facebookwww.facebook.com/people/Jeff-Richard/1226257444Jeffrey David Richard’s Myspace Musicwww.myspace.com/547856946

Eddie, Brandon I must not be seeing the same ‘stuff’. What I have seen (which is very little) has been only old pictures of past Camp Meetings at the old NC Church of God Camp ground. Some older folk who wanted to keep in touch with others who enjoyed the old camp ground. Many NC COG PK’s seemed to post there.We must be on a different page. I still hven’t gone there after this post, I have been tied up with all these ‘senior’ busy volunteer days. But in reference to Brother Earl Paulk Sr., HE was a wonderful man of God, I cannot imagine the heart hurt he experienced after Earl Jr.’s crazy life following his fall from grace. I had a close friend whose son, a COG preacher also ‘messed up’. His comment was, Now I know how Earl felt! It was a hurt like he had never experienced before. It also shortened his life. ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

Cojak, the first group you mentioned is the Memories of Charlotte NC Campground, which is mostly posts about memories of the old campground/tabernacle, youth camp, Bible School, and ECBC. (I am a member there, but there aren’t too many posts these days.)I am still a member of the Church of God – Cleveland TN group but I don’t interact often because of the same issues y’all have had. I’ve learned not to get sucked in if I can’t say something to help. Or sometimes it just annoys me so much I have to speak up. LOLThe Church of God, the Old Days group has some days where someone will lament about how the COG has changed/gone downhill/not the same, etc., but most of the posts lately have been pics. If you can overlook the griping, it’s not as often or as bad (usually) as the other group. This group’s focus is on posting all things COG before 2000. I kinda don’t get posting old obits of pastors, but whatever floats your boat! I usually just try to ignore the griping. I haven’t interacted much on this page, either, just kind of glance to see if there’s something that interests me. I did post a pic from my home church from the 60s recently. I have sent a couple of pics to folks who aren’t in the group who have pics of family members or their churches posted that I knew they wouldn’t see. Anyhow, just a thought..________________More of Him…less of me.twitter.com/camiracle77www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=691241499&ref=name

The Paulk posts have been very good.If you have been generations in the COG – it is great stuff________________

I’m enjoying what I see so far, but when I look at Paulk’s FB page its FULL of far-left stuff. Yuk. But I do appreciate the old memories though. Yeah – the pictures are what I am talking about.Paulk’s have had to reinterpret stuff in light of how they later generations lived their lives.

I agree Eddie. The pictures are great. I wish it would stay at that…maybe a few old anecdotes.btw – did you take a shot at an old poster with the old time country preachers comment? Perhaps, that is where our old friend ended up.
