My sister made me check out the local "word faith" church (avoid those please!) with her... since I was very pregnant at the time, and have a hair problem I have to wonder if they pounced on me thinking that I was pregnant and in treatment for cancer (without even bothering to ask) - and they asked as I was just about to go out the door if I needed prayer. So I said "yeah we need a minivan because we're upside down on the loans on our two cars and can't fit all of us in one once the new baby comes.
I think she was hoping I'd say I had a serious health problem but I didn't. Anyway she prayed about the cars and then launched into praying in tongues. I just kind of politely waited until she was done and then left.
The next week we went to this Covenant church we now belong to - the pastor was genuinely interested in each of us, people were nice and asked us questions about ourselves, but not too pushy. It felt very comfortable. In addition the denomination's motto (ironically in the case of women pastors) is "where is it written?" [in the scriptures] and they encourage discussion of issues/doctrine etc. to keep each person sharp. Now, whether the individuals actually participate in those discussions is another thing.
