I know what you mean. Shortly after I was baptized, I wanted the ‘contemporary’ services. But a few years later, I started wanting the ‘traditional’ more and more. I don’t know why this is the case, but it is.

I’ve always loved traditional. Yet I didn’t really grow up in church. Just that my mom loved to go to holiday services at good Catholic Churches. I didn’t like it as a kid. Didn’t have to go much at all, though.

When I went to college I started wanting church more. Had a great respect and appreciation for God and Jesus thanks mostly to mom even if she too was lazy. And I had no knowledge of “contemporary”. Was rather appalled when I saw it happening more. Just seems more self-conscious about being hip, but it just seems irreverent to me. Also alienates me because they never offer the music, so we have no idea how we’re supposed to sing. It’s much easier with sheet music.
