One of the great, humbling and horizon-broadening experiences of my life was spending two years as part of an urban Pentecostal church in Kansas City. Sadly, no guitar-driven sanctified R&B, but the genuine expressions of faith and community stick with me (and haunt me) years later.
this generalized topic is one that Mike McGonigal has written about. I love this sound, along with Charlie Jackson and Utah Smith and many others. The whole school of guitar evangelism (to which this is related in a somewhat distant way) is very powerful. You will find (if you have not already) that there were a lot records made like this.

Oh yeah I dig a lot of that. But this one found me!
