We were so embraced with our children (1 & 3) and it was so peaceful to enjoy service with my husband knowing the kids were having fun on their own. The sermon was exactly what I have been looking for. I'm so excited to become a part of this family and enjoy the extra curriculars available!

We were searching for a church when we moved to this area and tried out several great churches -…read morebut none really felt like a fit. The first time we came here, it was such a great experience. They value kids and their children's program is strong - but they don't call them back until after worship - so our 2 got to sing and dance with us - which was a nice change. Also, the music is incredible. Acoustic and powerful, but laid back and not stuffy. Lastly, the preaching really spoke to us ... we've been going ever since.

If you are looking for local church where you feel connected to a faith family, with an intimate…read morelaid back atmosphere, but an intense connection to Christ, I suggest checking out Chris South. Our family are members of Christ Lutheran. Its new south campus, Christ South, worships at Polo Ridge Elementary, close to us. We began attending 2 years ago and just got hooked. This feels like home. Great acoustic music (really good), really strong healthy children's program. And a very cool plan for expansion on land just purchased in Weddington 2 miles away. Christ South is worth checking out if you are looking for something new, different, connecting.

The people God has already brought into our community feel like family ... so loving, caring, thoughtful, and growing. We're learning what God's already doing in our city and what role God uniquely has for us to play in Indian Trail, in Charlotte, and together with God's other churches in the area and around the world. We're pressing into the fullness God has for his church as all his ethnicities live in community together. And we're inviting God to guide our lives and hearts as he shows us how to follow him and love him more deeply. We love it. If you're already at a home church, you should probably stay there and do what God's got for you, but if you're ... (1) not currently with a church ...

As an introvert, large crowds can be a lot for me, but I truly felt the Spirit of God, his presence. The people were kind, welcoming, and even prayed for me. Though I usually watch the 9:30 service online (since 2019!), being there in person felt like leaving family when I walked out the doors. Elevation is a place for everyone--the old, the young, and those in between. I'm still working on my concerns with large crowds, but I know I'll be back. I am hoping to one day meet the pastor and his wife. They are such wonderful people. For now, I'm grateful to keep worshiping online until I'm ready again. Elevation is truly a wonderful church home.

THIS REVIEW IS ABOUT THE USHERS, NOT THE MINISTER WHO I THINK IS AN AMAZING CONDUIT FOR GOD'S WORD:…read more I enjoyed the church the few times I went. However, the USHERS/VOLUNTEERS give you an entirely different experience than what is being preached about. They will speak loudly during the sermon, try to carry on a conversation with you during the sermon, compare what the minister did/said during his 8:00 versus his 11:15 sermons, distract you, make you give up your chair for people who arrive more than an hour late for service (when you are deep into the message and are in need of it) then make you seem like you are the problem, etc. There is a disconnect. I've noticed this problem when there is a Black manager in charge of people who don't take him or their jobs seriously. They sabotage him.

I have been a member of Forest Hill Church for about 5 years now and love it. It is the…read morelargest/main campus for the church, and it has a casual atmosphere, so jeans are fine, but you will see some people still dressed up a bit more. I love that you see a diversity of ages and families in the church. Services start with a time of worship- very contemporary with lights, screens to see the words, etc. Senior pastor David Chadwick preaches from the Word of God. And then the service closes with another worship song. The Southpark campus pastor, Jonathan Scott is also awesome and will preach when David is away, etc. The church has small groups called "Life Groups" and you can get connected at any time, but check the website for "Life Group Connect" where you can meet all the life group leaders and get plugged into a group immediately. There is a wonderful children's ministry during the service and middle school/high school meet Sunday nights for what is called "Advance" If you are visiting or new to the church, stop by the info booth and they will answer any questions you have.

Our community of friends are associated with Forest Hill through our life group and we will be co-leading a new life group in a few weeks, something we are very excited about. When it comes to elements of value, the teaching is gospel-focused, intentionally grounded in the bible, and completely God-centered. The worship is reverent, fun, talented, and God-focused. There is a real sense of love for God and a desire for authentic community. Two things my wife and I must have in our choice of a local spiritual family. If you are curious about faith and want to learn more about the truth Christianity claims, Forest Hill is a great place to start that journey.
