Never give up...I had to break with my primarily presbyterian background due to politics and frankly sad and inadequate churches in the area, but there are other ones out there, and worst comes to worst, put church on hold for awhile. Fellowship with Christians but sometimes coming back into a church family with a fresh new perspective helps!
GOOD LUCK!
I appreciate you all for your thoughtful postings! Some of the things I read about [different] churches make me feel bad for the way they see and do things.
Our church comes downtown to feed the ‘homeless.’ They stay around the park across the street from my office building. The take the free food and then panhandle for money for cigarettes and beer or wine.
How does our church ‘help?’
