MA is a bit of a Christian wasteland. Sure, there are lots of churches around, and there is some attendance at those buildings. But, too often, what is preached from the pulpit is not Christianity. I once attended a fine church (Methodist), with a very good pastor --but he retired and was replaced by a woman who openly doubted the existence of God, preached about the importance of tolerance toward homosexuals regularly, and was deeply, deeply concerned about the souls of our pets.
I have similar stories from 3 other churches. I don't feel tied to a particular denomination and so my difficulties have not been limited only to Methodist congregations. I've had to do a lot of "church shopping" as good leadership within a congregation is replaced by bad leadership.
If you want a Bible-centered church, it can be difficult (but not impossible) to find one in MA.
Again, thank you to everyone who participated.
