I was raised in the Union Church, town was so small there were not enough of any one group of Protestants to make up a Methodist or Presbyterian or United church. Actually the United Church was a merger of Methodists and Presbyterians, except some Presbyterians held out and would not join.
Fiesrt wife was an Anglican (Episcopalian here) we used to refer to them as God's Frozen People, stiff necked lot.
Currently married to a lady raised in the Catholic Church, although we have removed the capital C and simply call ourselves christians. We have learned over the years that organized religion is more about the organization than it is about religion.
Though in my travels I have seen many beautiful churches here and abroad and I have read quite a bit of the Bible, I still have not found the passage where we were asked to build them. I did find a bit that said "Where two or more are gathered together in my name, there shall I be also."
For all those TV mega churches I would recommend Matthew 6 -1:7
