Jen, hon, you really should attend some of these events. Doesn't your church do interfaith stuff? As a kid, I got to go sing at Catholic churches, and the snooty white Methodist churches (this was before the Methodists United). It was fascinating, seeing the ways people worshipped.
And the church I'd take you to would be interracial, and very Holiness. Full band --- drums, piano, organ, guitars, and maybe a brass section --- to bring the Holy Ghost into the house, and a preacher that will first preach a thought-provoking sermon, bring the Holy Ghost into your heart. When he sings during the call to join --- and every good preacher's gotta sing --- you'll toy with the notion.
I like a good CoGiC church, I do!
Amen and Hallelujah! :-)
Not... particularly. But also as I said, we don't have a lot of variety. Catholic, several different orthodox, and 42 white Protestant churches. I'm not sure I've even heard of Church of God in Christ before.
Lol, the preacher last night was very energetic and I think he tried to get an "amen" near the end. It, um, didn't work. I guess if I had to give adjectives to the style of worship I'm used to, it would be 'reverent', 'liturgical', and 'quiet'.
Suzi's right, you probably would blow my mind, but I'm game to try it. Do people wear hats at your church?
