A Question on Fellowship

I get emails —

I would like to commend you on your Born of Water book. It was a very exciting read and, quite frankly, I agree with pretty much everything that was written there. However, I’ve a very difficult question. Indeed, I was a member of the International Christian Church (led by Kip Mckean), and to tell you the truth, the legalism was too much for one to handle.

Right now, I am trying to search for a new place of worship, but that is a struggle (I’m a fan of variety, but not in this case). I am highly considering going to an interdenominational church (at least for the time being), or perhaps even a Baptist or Evangelical church. My question is do you see it to be wise to have known the truth of immersion for the forgiveness of sins and to fellowship with those whom teach otherwise? In my case, should I even fellowship with those of other denominations to begin with?

I know that many readers have faced and struggled with exactly this question. What’s your advice?
