Went to a church where we moved to. Decent church, but the first thing I noticed was the emphasis on money. The pamphlet had a picture of a bowl with money falling out of it, and the introduction discussed how much money they had raised in a garage sale.
Next up came the praise. It featured a choir that clearly had not practiced their songs, and pre-recorded music. I normally wouldn't care about this, but it was almost embarrassing.
Then, when the praise portion was finished, the choir sat down and the preacher started talking about how we need to fix ourselves. The specific topic was to stop complaining. I agree that this is true, but I want to go to a church where the focus is on Christ and becoming a Christian family, not on myself. Hopefully, my family will be able to find a church that merely just walks through the scripture each week. I wonder if there are any Calvary Chapels in the area...
