President Hinckley said, (not word for word but it's something like this) Go to church. Church is a great place to learn about Christ. BUT if you have questions and can't find an answer, come to us(church of Jesus Christ of latter-day saints).
If you like it at another church it is probably because you don't have friends in the LDS church. Every member needs a friend. President Hinckley said that too!

Hey, the decision is your's! If you want to live a telestial life, nobody is stopping you. We will always love to see you step up to a higher law, though. I mean, the reason why you feel more comfortable in a different place typically means you don't desire to live some commandment taught in the church. I just wonder which one it is that you can't live. But it's none of my business.
You know, when I was a high schooler and moved away from my family, I didn't want to have anything to do with a church. Attending a Christian church was a joke, for obvious reasons. But I would go to the LDS church on special occasions.
When the time came, of course, for me to stop rebelling, at least I had enough brains to return to the LDS church where the only true spiritual growth could have happened. At least I never lost my conviction that if any church was true, it would be the LDS church.
You might feel more comfortable in some Christian church, listening to that rock 'n' roll music during Sunday services. I know how fast that brings in the "Holy Spirit" to the meetings. Man, just like a good old football game! Woohoo!!!
Anyway, just remember where the truth is, and we'll always be here when you're ready to come back to it.

It's important to go where your blessings are. I would go where you want to worship God. I have visited a few other churches a few times in the past, mainly due to curiosity about what kind of music they use. It sounds like you are kind of on the outer perimeter of activity right now, so you might want to study and consider how fast and when to re-commit to what you know is true. If that includes visiting other places in order to be sure, please do so. God's children are everywhere, after all. Of course, we will always want you back. Have a happy day, and I send you a gummy bear.

ew!ew! ask about the satan story, and ask about the trinity, and ask if they believe in evolving into Gods (because they don't) you will find the theology very differant, but if you enjoy the worship and company, then do go there, maybe you will get saved to. Most christians believe that satan was once a created angel that was in the ehavenly courts with God and he wanted to be praised and thats when sin entered his heart and he wanted to be like God, ask the christians, they should be able to tell you were it is found in themormon bible, if not , email me and I will tell you were it is found...better yet,

It's awesome when you go to church. Don't evan ask if it's ok. You entered the world of God and Jeasus and he loves you with all your heart. Make sure you love him with all your heart too. Pray for all and do the right thing and you will be great. Try going to church everyday if you can. God Bless and put your worries to God.

Do you believe all churches are true? Do you believe all Christian churches are true? Do you believe one Christian church is true? Do you believe some Christian churches are true? Do you believe that 2 1/2 Christian churches are true? Do you believe no churches are true?
I believe God only has one true church, and he would disapprove of me attending any other church. I believe Gods true church requires personal change, sacrifice, and obedience.
I challenge you to ask of God, which of all the churches are true. If you ask with real intent he will manifest the truth of it unto you. Good luck to you sister. God loves you!

God has a way of showing us what is truth. You like it there because your soul feels at peace & recognizes the truth is what you hear & see. The Bible says that we each have to work out our own salvation with fear & trembling. It's much harder to do that in some religions, such as LDS, where every step & aspect of your life is spelled out for you already.

The Mormon church is a joke. If you look at their Utah holy land you will see that more and more "members" of their church are converting and/or walking away from that religion. Its built upon lies and fallacies. Even today though they claim to have one of the most populous religions in the world, their precious state is less than 50% members.
Look into their history and when you question things they will use common interrogation tactics of diverting, casting blame, and question your faith among them. Its a joke.

Start going their INSTEAD. I always came home after church and cried for hours because I felt so horrible. Go where you are happy and feels right.

It is perfectly fine. You know...If you feel in your heart that it is better to go to a Christian Church...That is God showing you a sign, and He is telling you that is the way to go...trust your instinct and trust God.
God bless you.
