Only got one decent answer, no need to continue with question.

Pair with someone going in the same direction, or take up residence in the attic.

My husband and I had been married for fourteen years before we regularly attended the same church. The key is about being able to respect and support one another's choice of church, and encourage one another to use your gifts in service. It doesn't have to be under the same roof at the same time.

My GF and I have been together for over 4 months now, but we really disagree on churches.
I like my non-denominational church that is very free spirited and high energy. They play live contemporary christian music, pray for people in the community and other chruches and even have a program called kingdom builders where they take donations to build churches in impoverished areas of the world.

My GF however doesn't like it, she think they only want money and are tricksters. She feels strongly against catholic church even after being raised catholic. She said at one time that catholics were going to hell which deeply offended me because both of my grandparents were catholic as are my numerous cousins in two seperate states.
I have tried to work with her by attending other churches in town with her but she is very picky. She claims they're too dark or not preaching correctly (she doesn't believe in female pastors).

She is a good woman deep down inside but I feel the particular Baptist church she attended has taught her things that are a bit misguided and old fashioned. Anyone have any advice for dealing with this? I deeply love my church and don't want to leave it.

Reasons .... what are the reasons for one's belief? Perhaps you and her should spend some time studying His Word together and see what His Word says .... rather than possible bias of some kind (by either of you) In choosing a church it should be dependent on what they teach (not music and other things) .... and teachings (no matter where they come from) should be in accordance with what His written word says.

And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.

My house has a low pitch roof leaving little room to crawl, so in my case, I had to make it the basement.
