After trying about all the churches in town (well, the non-culty ones) I tired of the wishy-washy “Seeker Sensitive” garbage. I finally found a church home and we placed our membership in an Independent, and Fundamental, Baptist Church.

I guess I'm odd and old fashioned

Everyone wants a more “progressive” experience, whereas I’m the opposite. I want an experience that is more traditional, where I can sing the hymns I know and love in reverence, and where the pastor isn’t afraid to offend. If I don’t feel under conviction at the end of the sermon, I don’t feel satisfied or that the sermon was inspired. Maybe Churches like this are a dying breed in California as everyone wants the “emerging seeker-sensitive” experience. Walks on the beach are great, but you can’t explore the ocean without a map (C.S. Lewis “Mere Christianity” reference there.)
