I met my bf's mother for the first time recently; she lives in another state very far from us. My bf is trying to get her to go to church, because she doesn't anymore. Her old church is a Catholic church near her, and he is encouraging her to go back there.
While I definitely want her to go to church, I have reservations about encouraging her to go to the Catholic church, because I strongly believe Catholisism is wrong in significant ways (I do not want to debate that in this thread, please!). But I looked up other churches in her area, and there aren't many good ones, if any.
How do I encourage her to attend church if I don't agree with the one she's going to? I bought her a Bible and we're going to send it to her with some other presents. And I want to be able to witness to her in whatever few chances I may get. But how should I go about this?
