Ah, it bugs me when people lump all non-denominational churches together! I went to one for 12 years, and they were very conservative. In fact, there were three other sister churches who were very similiar. No fish-flopping on the floor. No repeatitive "new" songs. No big band musicals. No shallow sermons.
The thing is you should never EVER generalize non-denominational churches. Why? Because they are each different. In my home town you had charasmatic non-denominational churches next to very traditional conservative ones. They were TOTALLY different!
Agh, I'm so annoyed! If you have been part of a denomination all your life, do yourself a favor: don't make an ASS out of yourself by ASSUMING you know what all non-denominational churches are like. You don't. And when you act like you to, it makes you look stupid.
Let's repeat: Non-denominational churches are not like denominational churches. They have no "code" to adhere to. Therefore, one can be uber conservative, while the next one can be uber liberal.
Have I repeated this enough that you understand? Please, for the love of unity, don't go around making non-denominational churches out to be evil and anti-scriptual! They aren't.
GRA! ARG! FRRUUURG! *makes many more frustrated noises*
Now I'm done. ~_~;

I'm sorry don't get your point here... but we belong to a... what we like to call "home church". Grace reformed, leaning towards PCA. Great teaching, men got to lead... we worshipped in our own ways (didn't have a piano or sound system but tried to make our singing exceptional nonetheless). Anyway just wanted to say that our "non-denominational" church really wasn't all that bad...
and I think all military branches are great, by the way... not picking sides. :) Thank you for your sacrifice.
This was a rant at another blogger who kept generalizing non-denominational churches. She would find the most shallow, liberal non-denominational church and then act like they were ALL like that. It was quite annoying. ~_~;
