Our New HOME church…read more.....
If you are like me and my wife when we were:
- Looking for a change!
- Tired of being just a number and a Sunday Christian in a Mega Church that teaches false doctrines, handpicking and compiling different Bible verses, and twisting the Word to promote their political, financial and bigoted agenda
- Looking to grow spiritually, learn in-depth teaching of the WORD verse by verse from the most humble Pastor and Church Leaders (Elders), and to encounter amazing people and develop meaningful friendship/relationship with such welcoming congregation.
- Looking to focus on serving the surrounding community (not an unheard of remote town of a third world country to lay guilt on you so you can give more money and they can say its being used to help someone who you cannot verify, so just take their word for it)
- Tired of Overwhelming Noisy Rock Concert for Worship Songs, with the band more focused on showmanship than leading on Worshipping the Lord.
- Tired of display of arrogance, being on a pedestal, and not knowing your Pastor personally, cause you only know him via Satellite service, or he is too important to get to know his congregation in person.
- Having a teen daughter/son who will be accepted by their Peers in the Youth Group who will be a good influence, and walk with them through their daily pressure of being a teen ager.
- Tired of being Judged, or seeing other people be judged and condemned by the church and its hypocrite members. We are all SINNERS regardless of how big or small your sin is. Unfortunately, certain church tend to believe that there are acceptable and unacceptable sins, which gives them the right to judge, condemn and reject those who does not agree with their belief, but really needs God the most.
- Tired of offering plate being passed around during service which forces/manipulates you to give. Tithing should be between you and God, not you and the Church, for God loves a Cheerful Giver, not give because of obligation or compulsion. 2 Corinthians 9:7
- Tired of Bureaucracy of Churches that only accepts you if you abide by their rules. Membership should never be a requirement unless you want to be a part of a Cult.
- Just simply wanting to rely on His Grace and Mercy and not from any kind of works -Ephesians 2:8-9 . To be accepted for who you are. To know that someone will be there for you while you struggle with daily challenges of life. Everyone will continue to struggle and sin everyday, that's why Jesus died for us, cause we can NEVER be perfect...And if you are willing to accept that, then you know being a Christian does not mean you are perfect, living a perfect life, but know that you are LOVED and SAVED!
Then - Don't just take my word for it....Come check it out!
