This is a group of people who are filled with the love of God. If you are a visitor they will make…read moreyou feel so welcome. I fell in love with Pastor Tony's preaching from the first minute I wandered into a service and his heart for the lost and for evangelizing is very refreshing. The worship music is contemporary and always leads me to praise God. I can expect to hear a solid message every time I visit, and it's also extremely engaging. The church does an excellent job of connecting with your family and getting you involved. There is a four-part new members class designed to teach the basics of the faith as well as what the church believes. The new members class is also a great chance to get to know people.

I have attended many churches and I've learned there is no such thing as a perfect church. Anyway,…read moreif I WAS to find a perfect church they wouldn't let a less than perfect person like me in. Monroe Missionary Baptist is the best church I have ever attended. They work hard to handle the word of God properly and there is so much love here. The staff is great and the facilities are topnotch. One of my favorite things is that there are always opportunities to serve God here.

One of my favorite parts of the service is the greeting time: most churches give you 3 minutes before you have to rush back to your seat, but here the greeting time extends through almost the entire worship, which I think really helps build connections among members and visitors. Do be prepared for a possible culture shock if you're used to evangelical or fundamentalist Baptist churches. Redeemer comes from a charismatic background. If you prefer a charismatic church don't be deterred by the "Baptist" in the title (which they actually dropped from their name years ago, I don't know why it's still listed as "Redeemer Fellowship Baptist Church" on Yelp), you will feel at home here. The worship is contemporary, with their head pastor, John Piippo, as the lead guitarist. The pastor has a doctorate in philosophy and it shows in the emphasis on discipleship here. All the messages I have heard have been solid. I know not every layperson represents the church as a whole, but I have heard some irresponsible teaching on the charismatic gifts by some of the laypeople--never from the leadership, however.

I have had limited interactions with this church as a whole, but I have had the opportunity to get…read moreto know several members closely and serve with them. This church has a high view of Scripture, which is so important. I've only had a preliminary view of their congregation and I like what I see, but I'm sure I'll have more good things to write about as I get to know them better.
