My hubby and, I who are not particularly church going folk, admitted to the overwhelming feeling of joy and love the whole time. I think we also felt at home because of the various age groups and races being represented here.

We just moved here and are searching for a home church. It's just me and my daughter, as I'm a…read moresingle mom. The website said they start at 11, so we showed up at 10:45, come to find out they're doing a special series for the month and don't start until 11:30. Had to drive around the parking lot a couple times before we could get a spot. Walking in, the greeters at the door didn't even say anything to welcome us in. It seemed disorganized. Everyone walking everywhere, looked like a bunch of bees flying around. This is a LARGE church by the way with police helping with traffic. We walked over to kids check in (which took us a while to find. I thought I was standing in line for it bc I followed the signs, but turns out it was just a guy and his daughter waiting for someone). The kids leaders were extremely welcoming and kind to my daughter. My daughter even made a friend. Austin checked us in and he was super friendly and helpful. After I dropped my daughter off, I went to wait for them to let us into the auditorium. Standing there by myself, not one person came up to me. They were all saying hey and chatting with people they knew, all regulars at the church. I was extremely uncomfortable. I did see the worship leader greet the people next to me, so I give them props for that. It was nice to see him trying to get to know people. They finally let us into the auditorium. The music was SO loud. The bass especially was irritatingly loud (I come from loud, band like churches, and this was bad). Still no one greeted me as I was sitting there for 15 mins waiting for church to start. When the band started playing, I could tell it wasn't good. The bass and drums were so loud, i couldn't hear the singer hardly. It was really hard to drop everything and focus on God because it was so loud. I did like how everyone was high energy. That's what I'm looking for in a church, is the excitement of praising the Lord. Apparently everyone had a coke and popcorn to which I had no idea I could get, since no one told me. So everyone around me was eating their popcorn and drinking their coke. I wish I could have gotten in on that. For this series, they watched clips of a movie and talked about Bible verses that relate to that scene. It was okay. The pastor was on screen the whole time, never in person (all pre-recorded). I wasn't into that. Someone wouldn't be able to write notes in paper bc it was dark the whole time with the lights out for the movie. It felt very mainstream being there, not a lot of people focusing on God, I feel like they're all there for their friends or to watch a movie. I also felt like I dressed up in heels and a dress to go to the movies. You could see the disorganization probably with the issues I encountered in my one first visit. We will keep searching.

Who is Chuck Smith? was an American pastor who founded the…read moreCalvary Chapel movement. What makes Calvary Chapel Distinctive? Some churches believe in the gifts and ministry of the Holy Spirit, but don't have a strong emphasis on Biblical teaching. Others place strong emphasis on teaching the Word of God, but don't believe the gifts of the Spirit are available and valid today. In Calvary Chapel we value the teaching of the Word, and possess an open heart to the work of the Holy Spirit. This balance makes Calvary Chapel a distinct and uniquely blessed movement. From Chuck Smiths book Distinctives, page 27:

I had so many questions. I came across the group on accident and I'm so glad I did. They have a variety of classes and so many field trips. It encompasses all grades K through 12. Spelling bees, history and geography fairs ,everything you think your child will be missing from public school. And it's run by the sweetest lady Miss Brenda. You do not have to belong to the church. There's people of all religions. In fact no one ever asked us what church we belonged to! I would give this 10 stars if I could.

We thought we it would be hard to find a similar spiritual family. We went around and found "The Living Room", a young adults ministry of FFC. After being here for nearly 4 years. I've built some great relationships here. The worship, the people, and the teachings keeps us on our toes. If you want a place to call family, whether you are a student in college, a graduate, a young professional, a young family person, or just young at heart. This is the place where truth is held close and love is displayed. We are not perfect by any means, we're human, who is? We come to be changed and to love.

I have been here for about three years now. I love that my trek is over. This church, filled with the Word of God , will inspire you to hopefully ask Jesus into your life ,receive the utterance of the Holy Spirit with speaking in tongues and get Baptized in the name of Jesus. This church led by Pastor Myers is amazing. The services are always Holy Spirit filled. Everyone is welcoming and any need you have can be addressed here by someone, if you want. Pastor Myers is a very kind godly man. He loves his flock and cares about people across the globe. You must come to this church at least a few times and I'm sure you wont look around for another!!

Most UM congregations in Brevard are quite a bit more conservative than in other areas, due to the local demographics. I visited here with a friend last week, who was searching for a solid mainline/progressive church in the area.

Beachside, there aren't many options, but there is a Presbyterian church by the bridge, and a Lutheran church just south of 5th ave.

Sometimes when you go to a new church, everyone just stares and a few come welcome you lukewarmly. Not this place. They are very welcoming and it's genuine. The preaching is spot on from the KJV. If you want traditional hymns only though, it's a little weak there. I personally didn't mind though because I believe God loves to hear praise whether it's contemporary Christian music, hymns from the 1700 and 1800's, or the old, old, old music from the days of King David.
