I'm a Southern Baptist, and for the duration of the war we've been starting our services with The National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance. Nothing fake or phony, not preaching America but Christ -- just good, old-fashioned love for God and what He's provided by His gracious hand.

May the Lord be with you in your search -- the PCA is conservative, so is the Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod), Christian Reformed, Free Methodists (not UMC), Evangelical Free, Assembly of God, and the Christian Churches.

I love the SBC, but I would rather someone be in some other good, conservative church that preaches Christ and Christ crucified and risen, then a liberal one that denies any or all of the basic tenants of Christianity.

I'm a member of a Southern Baptist church and we're very patriotic here too. We don't like war and don't want war, however we are not blind to the need for war. While we support our troops and acknowledge them at every service, we don't turn away from preaching the Word. We need the Lord's message to the world, now more than ever.

I'm southern baptist, too and we did the same thing - sang the national anthem during the war. It's great.
