I'm not a Pentecostal, but there are some things that I like about this video and that I wish others would pick up on. I like the interracial work being done; churches and worship in the U.S. are usually segregated. Of course I like those accents---they take me home. I like the energy and certainty and joy at work. And I really like the line "Drink 'til we're merry, rolling on the ground" because I think that this is a kind of spontaneous Sufi spirit finding a companion in Christianity. We're not as far apart from one another as we think we are.
