forced spirituality

So I went to the Church of God church today and had a rather interesting but kinda disturbing experience there. It started out good with the singing and then the spirit started to move. I feel like people got a little to carried away and actually tried to force people to be slain in the spirit. I believe that people can be genuinely slain in the spirit but I also believe it can be taken to the point where it is forced. Here is why I say that.... I was sitting in church letting the spirit wash over me when all of a sudden I felt a lady take my hand and drag me up front. This was disturbing because I did not feel like i was supposed to go up front for prayer at the time. Then to continue my story, I had my bible in my hand and this lady yanked it out of my hand and set it on the seat...then she proceeded to lift my hands up over my head and hold them there. I felt uneasy because I didn't feel like God wanted to speak to me in that particular way today. I just felt like it was forced.
