I was music director of a Christian church for a few years.

By "Christian", do you mean the Disciples of Christ? Although the church of Christ and the Disciples of Christ are rooted in the Stone-Campbell reformation movement, they traveled very divergent paths.

The Disciples of Christ are a member of the National Council of Churches and I find them far too liberal, both politically and in terms of Christian teaching. On the other hand, the churches of Christ (each congregation is autonomous) are almost always Conservative, both in terms of politics and and doctrine. Some accuse the churches of Christ as being "narrow" but I personally find such unwavering strictness to Christian principles laudable.

No, by Christian I mean the “Christian” church, which is an offshoot of Church of Christ. Except we allowed instruments. I play bass.
