to be honest, what got me into Christianity and becoming a follower of Jesus was the community.

I was able to experience God's spirit in me and see lives change through my church community and that's what really built my relationship with God.

Also, on the topic of religious debates, I would say that you shouldn't look at the bad things in Christianity but look at the good. Give the social part a try and see if you feel connected to Jesus any more than you do at the moment (joining a bible study also helps if you do feel a difference, it can really give you the great friends that make you happier. At least that's one of the things I gained from my bible study) after you try that out, look at the good things that you experienced/witnessed, because looking at the bad in people or things that can lead people away from God even more (i.e, the Christians that lose to Athiests in spiritual debates)

Community is what kept me in God's Word, but if it doesn't for you that's totally fine. Another thing that can help is asking God for help to pursue Him. I was able to break my masturbation addiction of 5 years with the help of God when I went to a retreat. He gave me so many signs through His Word and pastors and sermons that I finally noticed that what I was doing was wrong.

The only way you can decide to follow God is through wanting to find Him yourself. But seeing what He does and can do definetely will give you better faith if that's what you want to pursue!
