It has been almost two years since I attended church. I loved church at one time and was even doing some teaching. I was very involved, read my Bible regularly and was always studying to find a new lesson to teach. Then all of sudden…that was it. It was a very small country church and our pastor left because the congregation was in total disagreement with a doctrine he was teaching, but I won’t get into that. We tried to keep the church up for awhile on our own but just couldn’t make it work. Well, we probably could’ve…we just didn’t try hard enough. I have been to a couple other churches but always seem to find something that I don’t agree with. I do not like the political aspects of ‘religion’ and don’t want to be labeled with a denomination. I also find that there is alot of gossip in the churches and people are sometimes focused more on what you are wearing or what you have done in your past than they are on the fact that you are at their church. I also don’t like ‘memberships’. Why do you have to become a member of a church? My name is written in the Book of Life, why does it have to be written in a church’s book? I don’t know, I guess I seem very cynical and hard to please but while I know that emotion is good in the church, it seems to me that alot of them run on pure emotion and that there is no actual Bible teaching going on. At any rate, I would love to find a church that I am comfortable in and that is teaching the Bible as it is, not their interpretation of it. I actually think I may have been called to teach and have ran from it. That I’m not sure about.
