I left the LC and reflexively went straight back into mainstream Christian fellowship. I had been meeting there before and didn't want to lose that connection. But I would (in my head) judge everything I saw and heard. "Oh, that's not God's economy" after a sermon that had brought the house into God's presence.
They say "there is nowhere else to go". There are plenty of places to go. The catch is having to start all over building church "social interactions". It's easy to go meet at a church where you know at least one person.
I wonder if "that's not God's Economy" is a programmed default answer when it comes to non-LC fellowship. I've heard the same response from others when it comes to various known or unknown minsters.
