Yup, that's about what I've been doing -- read and not post so much. I'm not looking to score any points for one side or another. I'm tired of so many "sides".
I came to the churches because that was where I found so many who knew and loved the Lord. The main stream denominations that I knew about didn't have much to offer in terms of experience or doctrine.
I got a lot of help from the experiential teachings of WL and Titus (though I pretty much held to the systematic theology from Dallas Theological Seminary).
I am disappointed (but not altogether surprised) that things have turned out so poorly. I am still struggling with baby and bathwater questions:
What to keep?
What to throw out? and
How to go on from here?
