Need help to find a church with God.

I need help to find a church where God lives. My family has been going to the same church for the last 10+ years. Good “family” church, as they call it. But I don’t feel God’s presence there anymore. I need a hand to find a church where God is. Somewhere I could feel God, learn about God and talk with God.
I greatly dislike the way our pastor preaches. It’s a verbal diarrhoea. The only difference from the real one that it’s not smelly. A cheap lecture that is lightly supported with some verses from the Eugene Peterson’s version of the Bible. Why can’t he just open the Bible and let the Word speak. Why can’t he just feed the flock with the pure word of God.

Ah, so now you are checking MY attendance at church! I stopped going because YOU stopped going! Maybe we have just been there on different weeks? Maybe there are other churches that need my presence? Maybe the music at your church ain’t contemporary enough to make me want to hang around?
No really, I have been rather busy- can’t be everywhere at once… oops! hang on, I can, can’t I! There you go. I have no excuse.
Church buildings are made for people to hang out in, not me. Not to say I don’t pop in from time to time, but a bit presumptuous to think I am Baptist, don’t you think? This week I will be present at the local park. Go there, wait for me under a tree, lay down in the grass. I will be there.
Got to go now, heading to the pub tonight to catch up with some friends. Come along if you are free. My shout. BYO water, I will look after the rest.
