LIBERTY, Ky. (AP) — Howard Goode's most recent visit to a Casey County church was more humble than his first.

WLEX-TV (http://bit.ly/V3VqMy ) reported Goode stood before the congregation of Ellisburg Baptist Church on Sunday to ask for forgiveness.

In 2010, Goode rode to the church on horseback and went inside armed with a gun and drunk in the middle of a sermon. The pastor called police and Goode was arrested.

On Sunday, Goode told church members he asked the Lord for forgiveness and pleaded for theirs as well.

The pastor said church members accepted Goode's apology, and he believes Goode might join the congregation.
