I believe fully in god and up until last year I attended church every sunday and went to crusaders.
However recently i have started to drift away from church and the things it entails.
i was never a great christian but i really want to devote my life to worshipping god. Is there any ways i can do this?
I am going to start attending church again but what else can i do?
xx

Avoid Church all together, Instead begin studying things other than the bible. Start asking questions. Don't waste your time going back to be brainwashed.

Hope I can help you understand what Christianity really is. When you are truly a born again believer, you will want to go to church, however the first step is to accept Christ as your Savior. Then church would be secondary- and your relationship with Christ would be predominate. Attending church alone does not save you. So if you have never admitted you are a sinner, in need of a Savior- and asked Jesus to forgive you and repent, and accept His death on the cross as payment for your sin- all the church going in the world, would be "entertainment at best"- boring at the worst. Look to Jesus and you will want to go to a church that truly worships Him, and you will experience Him everyday- Go to church without knowing Him will not fulfill your life.

Check out other churches
Read the Bible and have private prayer times
Listen to Christian Radio/TV programs selectively
Cultivate friendships with other Christians who are seeking a closer walk with Christ.
Read books on living a Christian life and spirituality.

read the bible devotionally day by day-for 15 min-half an hour-Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." Psalm 119:9&11
Relax your already a better person for believing in Jesus. Dont take life too seriously. Know you are forgiven as you called out to Jesus to restore the joy of your salvation and forgive anything you have done wrong. Psalm 51
And once you believe Jesus says I will never leave you nor forsake you. Hebrews 13
this is what helpe me as born a Jew to understand salvation and help from above=Christian means a follower of the Messiah-who came as a Jew- the believer in Jesus-has power over the mind to control their thoughts, thus when Jesus says to forgive and let Me handle it, or about lust is adultry against God, or hate is murder in the heart, we have the calling to cast down all imaginations that exault themselves against God which brings true peace and joy to our heart in all situations (Philippians 4:4-20).
My Jewish people believe in the comming of a Messiah, and his fulfillment is in Jesus. The laws of Judaism were given specifically to the Jewish people to be kept and to guide them to the promised Messiah.
Isaiah 9:6 the child to be the Son given, the mighty God and the prince of peace..
Isaiah 52:13-53:12 To be the exalted one. To first be marred more than any man, and to lay down his life to make atonement for our sins.
The way I came to know him is by believing what he spoke to us from heaven (Revelation1:1 chapter 1 verse 1 & 3:19&20 "I love you and ask you to repent of your sins (even one lie) quickly. Behold I stand at your heart door and knock If you hear my word and open the door, I will come in and be your friend."
so I prayed "Jesus I am sorry for my sins, come into my heart and help me, be my friend, amen."
Its all good and now as a Jew who has come to know Jesus is my Messiah, savior, and best friend giving me joy beyond words and power to live right.
have a great day, David

Meditate. Read "The Power of Now." Meditate on what you've read. Read Scripture (try The Message Bible version and/or the Amplified version). Meditate on what you've read. Pray. Meditate. Praise Him!

Looking like another lost sheep.
You still have the time. You will regret when time is running out.
