My favorite "church" is the great outdoors with fresh air and good fishing.

After that, it is one which preaches sound doctrine and has a congregation who seem genuinely interested in helping each other.

I believe it is these type of places which will fill needed leadership voids when TSHTF and many of our present ruling class get the Nicolae & Elena Ceaușescu treatment.

your point 1. I just had the same experience, sat outside and saw Gods majesty, felt the wind on my face. And thought this is much better than sitting in church and seeing all man made things.

your point 2. Sound doctrine doesn’t get us in heaven. “Go away, I never knew you..........” always haunts me. As I read the Bible more, it is about having a repenting/changing relationship with God.

your point 3. This helping thing has me puzzled, but I am getting more convinced we have to stop helping people and let God help them first. When we solve problems, we shortcut Gods work many times.
