  i dun really like to ask ppl choose a 'comfortable' church not because i want them to 'suffer'..
  
  it all takes a step of faith. i'm sure nothing is ever compulsory in any sound church.
  
  do ur best...God will be pleased if its done in faith.

  is there? i dunno...maybe i'll check out the churches in my neighbourhood..

  i do not know...but i do hope u can find one u r comfortable with and yet is able to grow in the Lord.
  
  To follow Christ is to deny oneself, take up the cross and follow Him.

  the bottomline is this: the Lord do not want u to do things out of obligations but rather a sincere and pure heart. if u think wat u doing will stumbles u, then stop doing it.
  
  The central focus of Christianity is Christ and Christ alone. not money, not looks, not form of worship, nothing else..just Christ and with Him comes all u think u want to do in response to His love.
  
  church is meant to be free..never a prison.

  i mean everything u do in church must be out of sincere and thankful hearts..not another 'office' in which ur boss sound commands and u carry it out. its never meant to be that way. if ur church is like this...i suggest u dun go back.
  
  many people serve in church serve until face black black and feel like in jail. what for??? thats not the idea of having people to serve leh....the idea is servanthood and worship to God. If the attitude of the person is wrong or the person who ask people to do things is wrong...DONT SERVE.

  yes..the decision u make must be based on ur own convictions. the emotions on the movie itself will subside...anything infact originated from human works do not last(i'm referring to the movie) but whatever comes from God lasts.
  
  i encouraged u to start simple, no point chiong all the way and then get burnt out.
