After several years of hearing stories about the different cowboy churches in America, I got the chance to visit one today, together with a team from Kingdom Center in Sweden. We went to "Cowboy Church of Ellis County" - a cowboy church south of Dallas that has grown rapidly from a few hundred to 3 000 members in just a few years. One of the tools they use to reach out to people is a weekly bullriding competition and they have seen many people give their lives to Jesus for the first time on these events.
