I traveled for work for the first decade of my career, God has gifted me with stability for the second. We found a church in Winter Haven, Haven Worship Center, that we loved to attend while we lived in Haines City. We moved to Lakeland in 2022 and mourned the 1 hour drive to Winter Haven every Sunday. It was worth it, but it wasn't sustainable. A month ago, a good friend of ours invited us to this church. We haven't missed a Sunday since. Not because of guilt or shame, worried of the "sin" of missing church, but because the SPIRIT OF GOD MOVES IN THIS CHURCH UNLIKE ANY I HAVE SEEN BEFORE. Since attending this church, my marriage has strengthened. I have found joy in the little things in life again. I have helped lead two people to the Lord, neither of which had any up bringing in Christianity. I have quit Nicotine. I have grown a business. I have bought a house. My children have begun planning to paint their bedrooms for the first time in their lives. I do not raise my hands during praise in worship, the spirit in me lifts them. The diverse people in this place, old and young, make us feel at home, the praise and worship is authentic, the pastor is wise beyond his years. As a man, I look up to him and his wisdom. He wears Jordan's, strange detail but he and the entire team embody "come as you are." Baptism EVERY Sunday, such an incredibly important detail and the way they do it is PROFOUND and well rooted in scripture. I love this place and am so grateful to have been called.

We were blessed to be members of this church for the short time that we lived in Bartow. Anytime we are in the central Florida area we always "come home", here.

This ain't no fancy looking church. In fact, you wouldn't know it's a church at all if it didn't have big letters out front that say "Access Church". It's in a strip mall, and one that's not necessarily nice or super clean overall. But Access brings up the average. Inside, it's more spacious than you'd expect. There's a nice greeting area, and they even serve free Concord coffee every Sunday (a great local shop)! The volunteers always have huge smiles on their faces and make you feel welcome without it being overwhelming. They give you a program before the service starts, along with a pen so that you can take notes if you want or in case you forgot something to write with. The worship style is much more modern, a little bit concert-like but in a good way. And they still sing a lot of the better known worship songs which I appreciate. The main pastors are so genuine and usually bring a good message. They don't over complicate things but hit you right where you need at times. It took me a couple years to find a church in Lakeland that I truly felt comfortable in, but from the moment I attended Access it captured me with the intentionality. After my first visit I chatted with some workers and they even gave me a first time gift. Access has weekends where you can volunteer at local nonprofits and help out. They hold small groups every week and baptisms once a month. Their Sunday services usually last around an hour, just enough but not too long. It's a great place to come and get your Jesus fill!

When we moved to Florida about three years ago, we were hesitant about finding a new church, simply due to past experiences. On a whim, we tried FAM Church. And we've been here ever since. The people of the church truly make you feel like a part of their family. They know no strangers! But they're not over bearing at all. Trust me; I'm pretty darn introverted; if it was too much, I never would've gone back. But they were just the right kind of friendly and just the right kind of welcoming. And, most importantly, they've got the right kind of love for Jesus! Pastor Brian teaches sermons that are deep and moving; I have no shame in admitting that I'm often moved to tears here and there. He teaches real messages as applied to real life. He's honest and fun and relatable. The kids church is amazing! The kids pastor has a real passion for teaching the Littles about Jesus! So many fun things for the kids! They do pizza parties, games, prizes, snacks, themed days, plays, some awesomely rowdy worship, and even comicon-ish days! For nerds such as us, that's pretty cool. Also, the check in process is safe and secure so no worries there! I feel I should also mention that church is genuinely fired up about making a difference in the community! From a weekly food distribution (groceries distributed to around 200+ families every single week), to free cooked breakfast meals and dinner meals on some weekends, to going out and helping neighbors with yard work, etc. and so so much more, but I fear my review is becoming too long and I'm going to lose you, dear reader. In short, if you're looking for a church, give FAM a try! All walks of life, all backgrounds, all types of people. Show up in your jeans and a tshirt, if want! Most of us do! We don't care! Just come! You won't know until you try!
