Instrumental Verses Non-Instrumental Churches

Today something has been on my mind. In all of the years I've been going to church, I have never participated in a church where we didn't have music or some type of musical instrument. All of the churches that I've been to have always had instruments. For the past eight months I have been attending a non-instrumental church. There is a big difference between the two. In my last church I really enjoyed praise and worship. We had musical instruments and everything. All of us enjoyed praising the Lord and doing it with all of our hearts. Every Sunday I've attended the non-instrumental church, I've found that people barely clap their hands. The majority of the congregation just sit and sing or just sit and watch. Many take that time for praise and worship to gossip about others in the church. During the service a lot of people are getting up to use the bathroom and it really distracts others. I feel like if you purposely get up and leave out of the sanctuary numerous of times, they shouldn't be allowed back in. It disrupts others from getting the message that they need to receive. My kids don't want to go back to the other church, but I believe I will be going back to my other church soon, unless the Lord tells me to stay. I will definitely pray about it.
