Notes -
This helped me rule out the nearest Lutheran church — not so much the church's webpage, as the LinkedIn page of its woman pastor.
Do you have any opinions on the Pentacostals?
Pentacostals wouldn't be my first choice.
Sadly the congregational church in Anchorage seems to be of the 'open and affirming' sort.
The Christian Church of Anchorage, Anchorage Church of Christ and Faith Lutheran Church looking at their websites are where I start looking for a church home.
Why those three?
I'll also note that the first one is way out on the wrong end (the south end) of town for me. The other two are at least busable, though via multiple buses (and then there's the lack of early Sunday buses). And the third one is just down the street from my parents, which means I know the neighborhood… and no, that's not a positive.
And again, I'm not a Christian, so wouldn't it be kind of wrong to be going to church just for some sort of social benefit?
Briefly searching for churches in Anchorage those were the first three that appeared to meet my criteria of a traditional approach to Protestant Christian theology.
Were I look for a new church I'd visit several that offer traditional teachings until I found a good fit.
You're not a Christian yet. Meeting with and talking to Christians, seeing yourself and the world through a Christian lens is a great way to learn about the Christian faith.
