I found that "main-stream christianity" presented a dead Christ on a cross and commanded me to believe he in him. They talked about him and offered possible meanings for his words, but after a few years, it all became deja vu, really it was just a club for nice, well-meaning people . . . better than nothing, but different to the New Testament.
Does anyone have a similar view? |

Anyway...

Didn't the two church threads beat this subject to death last month? You've heard the opinions of most of the people who will respond to this thread title already? Why start it all over again.
And ... no, to your question. |

In the past I found my church to be getting old, and I stopped going completly for a while. But, It was really just because i was struggleing with my relationship with God. |

I don’t know if you are non-denominational or not, but there are two good non-denom Churches in London which are Calvary Chapel: http://www.calvarylondon.co.uk/CCW/Home.CCW http://www.calvarychapelsouthlondon.org/
Locations and times are listed on their websites.

No, that has not been my experience. Sorry.
