Once I arrived the welcome I received was beautiful and amazing. I already felt like part of a family and its been like that ever since. I knew then I found my church home. Its been 9mo. I love the series the Pastor does, once you hear a piece of the series your hungry to come back to hear more. We now have 2 locations North & South. Come check it out you'll be glad you did. Deserves more than a 5 star.

I went to SPC for the first time for Easter a few weeks ago. The worship is very contemporary…read more(super loud music, fog machines, and concert lights). Something that impressed me at this church was the technology. Sounds weird I know, but you'll notice it when you go. During the worship and sermon, they have two big projection screens of the stage and add info/scriptures below it. They also had a video trailer of upcoming sermon series and church announcements. They give you an option of texting a certain number if you are new. Very fancy! The church lobby is pretty small, but has an open floor plan so you can see where the welcome booth and kids section is. At one point I felt like in an Apple store, they have people behind booths with a lot of computers open facing outward so you can check out their website. I'm tellin ya... fancy tech people at SPC! The main thing that made me go back to SPC for a second week was the pastor. He's legit! By legit, I mean, he's honest and real. From the few times I've heard him speak he's been funny, to the point and personable. Not a hellfire and damnation kind of preacher but also not just a love and fluff kind of preacher. I haven't made any personal connections with people there yet. I've said a few words to people at welcome booths but that's about it. Word of warning when you go: you don't pick your seat in the auditorium, they do. For me, that was a bit of a bother because I'm a back row baptist and my first time there they had me on the second row!!! However, it has its advantages. There's nothing worse than stepping into a sanctuary and feeling like you're back in a middle school cafeteria looking for someone to sit by.

Loving God is evident through different worship services (traditional, blended, and contemporary) that has a worship style that anyone would feel comfortable with. Loving people occurs in the many programs that reach out to the community (Mothers of Preschoolers, projects for homeless, projects for single mothers, and other community events like Downtown Days and Octoberfest). Making disciples happens in small group Bible study and prayer groups, where people grow and learn by living life in community. All in all, a great church family! I highly recommend you check it out.

The local community and world community benefit from the offerings as the first 15% of the money taken in is donated. The service style is contemporary and everyone is welcome. There are thriving children's and small group ministries. From the website: In essential beliefs - We have unity "There is one Body and one Spirit...there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father of us all..." (Eph. 4:4-6) In non-essential beliefs - We have liberty "Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters... Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To his own master he stands or falls... So then each of us will give an account of himself to God... So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God." (Romans 14:1,4,12,22) In all our beliefs - we show charity "...If I hold in my mind not only all human knowledge but also the very secrets of God, and if I have the faith that can move mountains -- but have no love, I amount to nothing at all." (1 Cor. 13:2) THE ESSENTIALS WE BELIEVE About God God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God. (Genesis 1:1,26,27, 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 1:2; 2 Corinthians 13:14) About Jesus Christ Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and o ered Himself as the perfect sacri ce for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. (Matthew 1:22, 23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14,15; 1 Corinthians 15:3,4; Romans 1:3,4;Acts 1:9-11; 1 Timothy 6:14,15; Titus 2:13) About the Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit is co-equal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make us aware of our need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians, we seek to live under His control daily. (2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13, 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 5:18) About the Bible The Bible is God's Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20,21; 2 Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105,160, 12:6; Proverbs 30:5) About Human Beings People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the supreme object of God's creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin". This attitude separates people from God and causes many problems in life. (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59:1, 2) About Salvation Salvation is God's free gift to us but we must accept it. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin's penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith we are saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith. (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8,9; John 14:6, 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26; Romans 5:1) About Eternity People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence. (John 3:16; John 14:17; Romans 6:23; Romans 8:17-18; Revelation 20:15; 1 Cor. 2:7) www.takethejourney.cc

It is full of people, growing together, loving each other well, and in the 4 years we have been there, we have been able to grow our relationship with Christ and knowledge in the Bible so much deeper through small groups offered (soooo many available) outreach programs, serving opportunities, and through going deep in the Word, not just the fluff, on Sundays with Pastor Matt with it being obvious it is through the Holy Spirit guiding him through the Bible. (As so so often the message ends up speaking right to what I needed to hear or what I was reading on through the week, or he ends up speaking deeper on verses I was actually reading!!!!) I absolutely love how much they do with the children although mine are grown. It is nice to see so many younger ones. It is like all generations are in this place.
