Love this place but to be honest I’m about tired of essentially watching tv every week. I hope this week isn’t a screen. About to find a new church if it is. I prefer in person speakers. Otherwise we love this place.

This church used to get 5 star when pastor Mike was there. The last time we went the sermon was on a screen. Very disappointing. Hopefully, things get back the way they used to be.

Great church. The music is awesome. The people are friendly. The preach from the King James Bible. Highly recommend.

So based on personal experience, this church makes its nearly impossible to connect on a higher level. It honestly seems like they are in it for the wrong reason. Though the music is alright ( seems very one line on repeat) the sermons and the preachers on a big screen in remote locations, take the personal uplifting connections with the church out of the picture. It also seems like the only people who have connected are part of the "culty" type culture that oozed from its doors. Lack of a message and just an overwhelming feeling of greed has stopped me from ever attending this church again. I gave it a shot for several months but sorry to say that it just got worse overtime.
I always say make your own opinions, but as for me, this is no church.

Everyone is always so welcoming here. The music is always great and I always leave feeling happier than when I arrived. Parking can be a pain but they run shuttle buses to the school down the road so efficiently the folks at Disney would be impressed. I find it actually more convenient to bypass the small parking lot in front of the church and take the buses on Sunday morning.

I have never felt so welcome and at home as I have at this church. Been going for almost a year and the message is detailed and on point everytime. Love the music.

First went to the young adult ministry (YAM) night hosted at the main campus (Raleigh) on Wednesday night. My friends and I were welcomed by both the guest experience team and other attendees. Worship was phenomenal. So incredible to hear everyone singing. The loft was a bit too warm for us and worship lasted quite a long time as compared to worship during the Sunday service. My friends are student athletes and several of us had to sit down during worship after awhile. Seats in the loft are the type of chairs that are wayyy too close together so you feel like you’re on top of the person next to you. At one point someone next to one of us accidentally hit one of us due to how close we all were. Guest experience team and group leaders were very welcoming and answered as many of my questions as they were able to!

I attended the 11:15am service the following Sunday. Worship was good. The message was great! Guest experience team volunteer helped me find a seat. The folks seated around me welcomed me and made me feel included.

Afterwards I asked a guest experience team volunteer to connect me with someone who could answer some further questions I had about the history of the church and some concerns and reservations I had prior to attending. I talked with one of the associate pastor’s and the campus pastor who were both open to listen to what I had to say and honest in their responses.

I look forward to attending YAM on Wednesday and the service again next Sunday!

I was an agnostic atheist a few years ago, they welcomed me with open arms and I've been loving it ever since. I had faith questions and the pastor, Duane, met with me and answered all of my questions.

They're very transparent with where your money goes and how it helps people, which is my favorite thing. love it here.
