Where do you go to church and If you indeed go to church do you hold a ministry or a passion in that church?
I go to an apostolic church. I praise sing during service, and I giver a lot of hugs. hugs are important, people need to feel loved.
What's yours?

I attend a contemporary Lutheran church. I sometimes do the prayers, other times the offering or some part of Holy Communion. I love to sing to our God but sometimes the lyrics and music styles are a little samey. Generally the messages are good and biblically-sound.

Protestant/Evangelical, Christ-centered, Bible-Believing Church to be exact ;)

I would hope that all churches are Christ-centered and Bible-believing.

I was raised Lutheran, (Missouri Synod) but in my teens I became a member of an independent charismatic church. In my twenties I joined a popular Foursquare church with 3 thousand members. Got married and joined another charismatic Lutheran Church. Then I kooled down and dropped out of church for 15 years or so. I slowly lost my faith and did things I regret. I came back and found a new faith with a little help from a Catholic priest and then joined another popular Foursquare church. Now, I do not attend any sort of formal church, but maintain a small core group of Christian friends.

Church - the House of the Lord..... If Church is the HOUSE of the Lord, then God resides in the HOUSE....
Maybe this is the CHURCH (House) of God...

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

And this....

Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

What use I go to a church, and He does not ABIDE/REMAIETH in me? I do not want to know what church you go to, I want to SEE GOD IN YOU!!!!

You would hope so, but they all aren't. Some are Mary-centered and believe man-made lies instead of the Bible or don't preach the truths of the Bible and avoid tough subjects.

I go to an evangelical home church. People are all nice and friendly. I believe God wants me to be here. We have praise and worship before the start of the service. Testimony during the service. I am under ushering ministry and a member of young adult Yes people needs hugs I feel that I needed hugs too. Warms my heart. :)

Varies, mostly I visit all of these three during a month:

An Evangelical church
An Episcopal church
A Methodist church

And yesterday a friend and I happened to pass by a Catholic church just as the Vigil started, so we dropped by there.

The problem we are almost all guilty of though is that we only ever ascribe such condemnation to others...

You, for example, clearly believe you have not been taught lies.
But you are sure others have.

And somewhere there will be someone that solidly believes you have been taught lies and what they have been taught is God's true gospel.

Casting stones at others does not make one right. It just makes one a stone-thrower.

I've never heard of a Foursquare church. Whats that?

I am Messianic/Hebrew/Israelite and meet with others on the Sabbath in a home. Our group is small and we have a leader/pastor. Each Sabbath we read the weekly portions from the Torah, the Prophets and the Gospels. We have open floor and discussion regarding that week's reading. We believe in God's dietary laws and enjoy God's Feasts together. For Passover we met with a larger group in a borrowed church to accommodate. In the fall we meet in another home combined with several acres for Sukkot. Our group has some great musical talent and a music director that also song writes.
