@Lostharmony27 Breaker It sounds like you've been quite discouraged by your three churches experience, and understandably so.  I really would like to encourage you to not give up on going to church, though.  Satan loves to isolate and then pick away at us, magnifying wounds and sowing and watering lies in our minds.  He knows Jesus has declared that the Church will not be overcome by the gates of Hell, so the enemy needs to weaken it as much as possible.  If he can't destroy it, at least he can make it ineffective. 
So right now, you are in a battle even if you don't realize it.  The battle is against your mind and heart.  As long as you are not operating in the Body of Christ, you will not be as strong as you can be (by far) and neither will the Church.  It's like a hand that is missing its body and a body that's missing its hand.

Prayerfully find a different church to serve in, but don't stop going.  You do yourself and us a disservice by staying away.  Not only are you not gaining God's blessing, and not acting in obedience, but you are cultivating attitudes in your mind that lead you away from the larger Body of Christ and everything that it offers (accountability, access to other's spiritual gifts and the sharing of your spiritual gifts, healing, corporate prayer, encouragement, Bible teaching that teaches us what we didn't know we didn't know, etc.). 
Instead of choosing to go it alone, you could say "That's really too bad.  I'm going to need to see about finding another church.  And this "plasticness" bothers me so much I'm going to set aside some serious time to pray for these churches (daily or weekly) that they would know His mercy, His wisdom, His deep desire for them, that they would have renewed minds, clean hearts, etc."

There MUST be uncountable blessings in gathering in the context of the church because, as I mentioned earlier, Jesus told us the gates of Hell would not prevail against the Church.  And Paul admonishes us to not forsake the assembly of believers. 
Jesus didn't ever say the church, the assembly of believers, was going to be all roses.  That's why He gave the command to His disciples, not to the world, "to love one another as I have loved you," and to forgive our brothers 70 times 7 times.   Peter, Thomas, and Judas caused obstacles in Jesus' ministry, Jesus didn't leave or kick them out, He rebuked them, and sheperded them.  What they did after that was up to them. 
Jesus went to synagogue as well, not just doing His own small group, but was part of the larger community of worshippers.  And they criticized Him and tried to kill Him more than once, later they did succeed in having Him crucified.   But instead of being done with them, He laid down His life for them.  Jesus practiced what He preached and loved His enemies (meaning the ones who treated Him as an enemy).  He calls us to do the same.  Picking up our cross and following Him.  Doing as He does/did.  Thinking as He does.

Keep praying and actively searching for a church where you can feel at home.  Don't give up.  And if you find that you're mistreated in a church, that church needs people like you who can spread love.
When Jesus commanded us to love one another as He has loved us, He was talking about the Church, loving our brothers and sisters in Christ.  We can't obey His command if we are shunning the very people we're supposed to love. 

It might seem like the hardest command to follow, but with the grace of the Holy Spirit we can do anything.  1 Corinthians chapter 13 is an excellent scripture that details what loving others looks like.  Not how we should expect or demand others to love us, but how we are to love them.

Keep running the race.  Keep fighting the good fight.  And get back to church..."It's our foundation.  The Family of God.  I know it's hard, but we need each other.  We're sisters and brothers."   (To quote a lyric from "Church," a song by Cochren and Co.)

"Tremble"

Peace, bringing it all to peace
The storm surrounding me
Let it break at Your name
Still, call the sea to still
The rage in me to still
Every wave at Your name
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus
Breathe, then call these bones to live
Call these lungs to sing
Once again, I will praise
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus
Your name is a light that the shadows can't deny
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive forever lifted high
Your name cannot be overcome
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus
Your name is a light that the shadows can't deny
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive forever lifted high
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is a light that the shadows can't deny
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive forever lifted high
Your name cannot be overcome
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus

I havent been to church for years I didnt want to teach my daughter but your voices and songs reminded me of dancing in the kitchen on sunday mornings after church and running around the alter dancing while they sing in church. It brought me back and I now teach my daughter about God and we dance and sing to your songs each night before we have bible time. Thank you Anthem lights for helping me back to God

Mr.& Mrs. Hawn

So honestly I've been away from the church for so long I havnt heard either one of these songs. This touched my soul so much that I went back and looked up each song individually. Amazing. I forgot how much worship music filled me with peace. Thank you guys for doing this and reminding me what it is to have faith in our one true father!

I don't go to church either . I've heard most of the songs through. Few plastic churches tore me away from church but not my relationship with God
