When you are "moved" or otherwise "in the Spirit" or whatever colloquialism you use; do you sometimes cry or tear up during the church service.
I recall that one time a long time ago, I teared up in church durring a particularly emotional point in a sermon. It was many years ago, so I voted no. how about you?
Sometimes

I have teared up or cried during worship, during sermons, and during prayer. I don't do it a lot, but it usually happens when I am giving my full attention to what is going on.

Yes every time the pastor goes past noon. Because I know the baptist are getting to the grease spoon restaurant before me. Sometimes I have to take out my keys and rattled them.
Just kidding. But yes I do some, if I see someone being blessed.

I put that i cry sometimes at church. Depends on the Spirit moving, though. There have been a few times (I can remember 2) when God was dealing with me so strongly and I started crying during the praise and worship time and continued crying during the sermon and altar call.

I can't say never, but wouldn't say often. I'm not really a cryer, just now how I deal with my emotions normally. Not that I don't ever cry, or try to hide it, just not my thing.

I cry often during my sermons. Especially if I am preaching on Grace. I can hardly believe that God cares about me so much to extend that grace to me.
But then , I cry at watermellon cuttin' too.!
CRY, YES

I am a crier!!! I get it honestly!! Those that new my mom, know that she was famous for being able to sing and cry at the same time!! That I can't do, but I do cry. I also cry at home or in the car when I am praying or worshiping. I have cried on my way somewhere while listening to a song. I always am moved at God's faithfulness towards me. I am emotional when I think of all He has done for me, and that His mercy towards me is so great!! He has done all that and does all that, in spite of me.
I was a labor and delivery nurse, and I often cried at many of the births. To see life come into this world is a miracle that still moves me.

I don't cry a lot, but seeing my hubby cry while preaching can choke me up, and sometimes during prayer times I cry. Though at church I'm usually at the piano during prayer times.

I'm ALWAYS at the piano, too, but, hey... I can cry and play at the same time!
And Jinjer, I have blessed memories of your mother singing at the General Assemblies - crying while she sang, and never missing a pitch.
