That’s not entirely true. Many churches have beautiful stained glass windows with Jesus and the Lamb. We have two oil paintings that depict him in our sanctuary. Quite lovely. Our services are always pointed to Jesus, as is our worship. Our church is unusual in some respects because we are a balanced spirit filled church, coming out of a Baptist tradition. The Word is so important as are prayer and intercession. Bible Studies, children’s ministries, senior ministries, a vibrant college ministry, missions (we have many young people who have gone on missions to forgien lands), etc. We aren’t ‘wildly’ charismatic but we believe in all the gifts of the Spirit. I’m glad God brought me here (and I did meet my husband here, too!)

Many but not most?
***The Word is so important as are prayer and intercession.***
Many Protestants believe that only Jesus is the Intercessor. Prayer then for others (or one’s self) becomes useless under that doctrine.

God gives gifts to all according to His design. I have seen some wildly charismatic types that would seem to be better off well supervised. I’m happy for you that you met a good husband. I trust, given your posts, that you are an even better wife.
