      Charismatics? Charismatics are awesome. I don't know why Elok doesn't like them very much.

        Next time you see a prosperity preacher, ask him to read the Bible. Check out this place.

          Charismatics can be good. Much of it isn't.

              There are a lot of not so good theology in those churches, like the aforementioned prosperity nonsense. They often have an unhealthy focus on performance, what you can and _must_ do for God to have his grace. Stuff like that.

                Ahh, duly noted. There are many things that have charisms, teaching included. If taught correctly, I think it's really quite cool.

                    And a serious note here - Metropolitan Community Church welcomes anyone who believes in Christ, regardless of sexual orientation. Using the phrase "gay church" can be misleading and create a misperception that only glbt folks are welcomed. In all three MCCs I've belonged to, there were a couple of straight people in the congregation.

                      Go with either the Catholics or the Orthodox. Preferably the Orthodox.

                          The Methodist Church is against prosperity preaching. I'm gonna stick with it for now.

                            Just about all mainstream Protestant denominations are against prosperity preaching.
