If you're looking for a place where they love Jesus, teach from the Bible, and seek to love the community around them then V21 might be a good place for you. The worship style is modern (i.e. they have a rock type band), but not cheesy like a lot of churches who try and do contemporary music. If the rock style or larger crowd isn't your thing they have another campus over on East St. at All Saints Chapel with a more acoustic/folk vibe and smaller crowd. It is by no means the perfect church, but you won't find that no matter where you look.

Pastor Mike: He's so funny and doesn't have a holier-than-thou complex some pastors seem to have. He teaches things that people really need to hear, regardless of wether they want to or not. The Band: They're fantastic! Sam, Sanè, DZ and one drummer who's name we don't know... (stands during I Will Live and we love it!)(If anyone knows his name, that'd be great!) The Coffee: Great prices, great drinks! The staff are so patient and kind! They go through the line like Chick-fil-A: quick and kind. If you need a church that loves you no matter where you are, you're in luck! That's literally the motto! "Love people where they are and encourage them to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ" It was hard moving half way across the country but this church has made it a lot easier. It's the best.

I went on to eventually be a missionary where I was sent out from Providence and served in Albania for 7 years where I met my wife and started a church there. Pastor George Tissier, who recently retired, always supported us as he did numerous other amazing works that Providence sponsors and has sponsored around the world. In hindsight, I was led to be exactly with the people I was supposed to be with at Providence. If you can find a group you fit into there and find some friends there who can help you with where you are at, you will likely thrive in a safe place where you will grow in your walk with God along with others who are called by him and serious about living for him.

Service starts with a prayer then a few songs- words are up on a screen. (Careful if you sit near the front- it is really load- I have to cover my ears) My husband and I really enjoy Pastor Brian's sermon- very engaging and memorable. I say it is like an advanced bible study. Their motto Grow, Serve and Grow. Flavored coffee in the lobby, and lots of classes and child care available.

I came to Hosea thinking I was a follower of Jesus. Boy was I wrong. If you want to sit in on a service, listen to feel-good preaching, slip out the back of the building after it's over and avoid talking to people just to check off your cultural Christian box so you can feel better about yourself and skirt accountability, Hosea is NOT the place for you. If you're curious about who God is, if you're hurting and need support, if you want to join others in worshipping Jesus, and if you actually want to grow by listening to convicting Bible-based teaching, then Hosea IS the place for you. The people at this church love Jesus, and they're not afraid of showing it. I dare you to come on a Sunday; you won't look back. We also have free donuts and coffee!

We have visited here a couple of times. We were familiar with Hosea Church because my daughter and…read moreI had visited Hill's Church in Pullman, WA where she was attending WSU. Both of these churches are an outgrowth of Blue Sky Church in Bellevue, Washington. Walking in the door, everything seems perfect. Nicely dressed people, a talented worship team, a young, charming preacher. If you have studied any christian history, you'll quickly figure out they are Calvinist, and words like "elect" and "pre-destined" will be heard in the message. Outward appearance seemed to be really important to members here. People were sharp dressed, women in makeup and perfect hair. Everyone looked similar: no worn clothes, no one rough around the edges, no biker t-shirts, no tattoos, no nose rings. For a full building, it was odd at the absence of non-white people or older people. It didn't dawn on me until later that it was basically a middle class club for white college graduates. We left feeling like we had visited a plastic version of church. I'm sure there are a lot of good dedicated people here, but I just believe that you could find a place that feels more genuine, more diverse, and deeper.

I was very impressed with the many opportunities that are in place to help with your spiritual practices, growth, relationships, and faith. There are many ongoing classes and programs set up for all age groups from childhood to adulthood during the week. It was also a delight for me to be able to worship in a very diverse environment which is not easy to find. Diversity is certainly in Heaven and it should be in God's house of worship on this Earth. Which is how God created his people. Pastor Micah does an excellent job of explaining the scriptures and speaking on behalf of our Father in Heaven. The worship and praise music was perfect.
