hmmmm, well, actually the catholic church is extremely bible based. everything they say is from the bible. But I chose to leave the catholic church because I didn't want my kids hating to go like I did. They don't LOVE to go to church, but they don't hate it either., we go to a Lutheran church, but our service is contemporary. So, we still have a somewhat ritualistic service, but with a little more fun with the band that I play in and the music we get to play. I definitely don't miss the masses! my gma would roll over in her grave if she read that. and my young child gets to be with us for the first half thru to the gospel reading, and then he gets to go to Kid's Praise, where he gets to learn about the sermon on HIS level. I love that. and I love that he still is in with us for part of it too.
but to me, we are all christian, and we all need to be a part of a church, so perhaps just start attending some and see where you feel God is leading you to go? I think it is really important that you find a place that you can be INVOLVED in...groups, studies, etc.
and hey, it doesn't matter if your tone deaf! God wants true praise in however you can praise him!
