I need faith guidance

We have independent financial advisors, independent contract negotiators, but where do I go for independent faith advice?

So, to explain my problem, a little bit of background.....

I am an inactive Christian. I have not prayed since my father died. When I told my ex bishop that my father had passed, I got a 5 word text..

Sorry to hear that Prof

And then nothing else. So I expressed my displeasure with my saviour by withholding my prayers. And so the separation began.

But I do miss my relationship with God, but I am not sure if the denomination I chose was correct. Because there are some areas of the belief I am not entirely comfortable with, does that mean that I have chosen unwisely? There are some areas I embrace fully, but this is not a conversation I feel entirely comfortable having with members of my church.

I identify as a Christian, but I do believe my (ex) church has a lot in common with Judaism, should I find a Rabbi to speak with?

Where can I go to have a completely open discussion about faith, without the bias of a particular denomination?

I do miss my relationship with God, I feel diminished by its absence. But I also miss the feeling of wellbeing that comes from being in a congregation.

Where do I look for advice?

If I Google the question, I get links to specific outreach programmes from the major Christian faiths, or I get links to astrology, spiritualists, black magic websites or tarot readers.... I really want to sit down, and find someone who I can talk to without worrying about their agenda....

Any advice?

Your FAITH is all about your PERSONAL relationship with God. God is your loving Father. He will always forgive you, and He will be [i]thrilled [/i] if you begin daily conversations with Him. Start with that, and then PRAY about which church or temple to attend. God will answer you...even if it's just with a warm feeling. Roadblocks will appear in your path if you make the wrong decision.
