I have really been struggling with this issue. A couple of years ago I became a member of a church here where I live. I loved it. I was getting fed (spiritually), I felt my relationship with God was phenomenal, things were really good in my life and I was happy. Until I found of some of the dealings. A family member who is well known to be on the shady side, was telling me that she wanted to start going. Her reasons was that a friend of hers who was in and out of jail, is getting "hooked up" there. It seems that her friend's sister was having an affair with a very married deacon. My family member's friend, took this information and told the deacon that if he didnt give her money for her lawyer she was going to tell all. He did. He took it from our offerings.
I was just blown away, stopped going all together and never found a new home. I have known all along that I needed to be guided, this was the first place that I really loved. I also know that I should not put my faith in man but the word of God. Should I find a new church home or go where I was comfortable and just focus on the word?
