Such a great mental decompression. Reset your mind and spirit.

It has a large church area along with a nice interactive area with a theater and museum. The grounds are very well kept. The rises could use some water which is odd with all the rain we've had.

The atmosphere is fantastic, the pastors are real, humble and often self deprecating and the messages are from the heart, biblical based and Christ centered. The music is wonderful. Great singers especially the pastor's wife who is amazingly talented and uses her gift to inspire and invite the Holy Spirit. I no longer attend the church I used to although for a while I was attending both in an effort to make the decision. I love that there are 4 services and that there is also a YouTube option. The services are all very well attended. The church is clean and the grounds are lovely. I thoroughly recommend Victory Family Church if you are looking for a church home and a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

Visited this church on their annual kid's "Back to School Bash" celebration. Free for everyone,…read morethey handed out school supplies, Little Caesar's pizza slices, had games, inflatables, booths from local businesses, a climbing wall tower, even a short zip line. We showed up early, but already the line to get in was long and snaking through the gym and church. Much of the staff was very friendly, making sure the kids all had a good time. But the event was very short. It took so long to get in, we only had enough time to eat and do a few games. Not enough time for many of the activities. Then while still full of attendees, men we had not seen before showed up and began tearing the place down. They took the tent down around tables full of diners. I overheard the group of men talking as if the visitors were just a nuisance, to heard them all off the property. It was very rude. So was it all for show?? Just an excuse to corner parents on which church they attend, get their information and cold call them at a later date? I'm not very religious, but my family goes to community activities wherever they may be as often as we can. It's a great way to get to know your community and neighbors. But never have I been asked which church I belong to so many times, over and over. It made the friendly smiles feel disingenuous. At first I thought it was nice to see them giving back to the community. But now I'm just not sure. Want to show off your facilities? Sure that's fine. But how about letting your actions speak for themselves and leave the recruiting for another day. Or if you must, relegate it to a handful of members, pin badges on them, invite visitors to ask questions. But let us come to you, not the other way around.

I've been attending this church for a few years now. The teaching is very Bible-based and…read moreverse-by-verse, which is great if you enjoy deep theology. That said, sermons often feel more academic than pastoral to me, almost like sitting in a college lecture. This is a huge church and still growing--they're currently expanding the building. Because of the size, it can be hard to feel connected. Finding a small group isn't very straightforward unless you go through the membership class, so it takes some effort to find your people. I've had better luck meeting others through Sunday classes and midweek Bible studies. The kids' and youth ministries are a strength. The children's building is bright, clean, and well organized/run, and programs like VBS are excellent. Youth and college ministries also seem active and well led. There are lots of friendly people here, but with multiple services and such a large congregation, it's easy to miss seeing the same faces week to week. The biggest downside for me has been the worship music. The band is skilled + lots of instruments, but the music style feels dated and very same-sounding from song to song. The music stays in the same tempo and emotional lane, which makes it hard to stay engaged especially if you're hoping for worship that is more energetic, contemporary or inspiring. Overall, the theology is solid and clearly rooted in scripture. The church does many things well. It just may not be the best fit if you're looking for a smaller, more connected feel or a more modern worship style. Also, it may simply be working through some growing pains as it continues to expand.
