I feel bad for reviewing this church and only giving it two stars, especially because someone that…read morewe know is active in it. However, I do not want anyone to go through the same experience that I did at this church. So, I am telling you about it now. Basically, we went because they were having a "block party". I thought that it was nice that they welcome the public, and that everything is free. They even gave us wristbands and got our info. I liked that safety measure. And, they were having a blood drive. You get saved while saving others. Just kiddin'. The people who were working this event were very nice- with one exception (I will get to that). We felt welcomed and I liked the fact that you could go to small tent to hear a Bible story. Devotion does not get lost among the fun. My younger daughter had a lot of fun, despite the blazing sun. In fact, to engage with the activities at this party, you had to wait in longish lines. Which encourages people to show how they really are at heart. My daughter and I were waiting in line for the face painter, along with many others. A clique got in formation in front of us (doubling the amount of adults), and a woman with a toddler jumped ahead of me and my daughter. When the woman who had let her friend jump let her second and third children jump in front of my child after she had just had her toddler's face painted right before the first jumper's toddler had her face painted, well, I had to say something. I let her know that we were next. She was not apologetic at all. Being rude did not faze her. We were nothing to her. One of her kids cut, and the other that had a conscience walked away. Ironically, while waiting in line for the bounce house, her wards tried to cut in front of us. And it was all for sorta naught. The face painter was mean as hell, and did not give the face painting that my daughter requested. My daughter looked Las Vegas. I would hesitate to go to a function at this church again. I try to keep an open mind, but an event that was supposed to welcome others did the exact opposite because of a wolf in sheep's clothing.

After coming to Lake Junaluska for the 49th Annual Smoky Mountain Music Festival, my wife and I…read morewere looking for a good church on Sunday. It was hard to tell one church from another just looking on the Internet, but we stumbled upon a real treasure, Lake Hills Church. The worship was fresh and creative, even featuring a beautiful new song the music leader had just written. The message was excellent, simple but relevant, and very encouraging. Attached are a few video clips of the worship, the message and various scenes of the people and grounds. Hope you enjoy this little church as much as we did. Definitely would go back if we ever come through this area again.

First thing we experienced was a genuine love that the people had for each other and did we feel welcome. We have two children under 6 years old. We were impressed with the kids ministry that they have there. (This was very important to us.) Pastor James Walker delivers heart felt and relative messages.

The application of the Word was solid and helped launch me into the week with a good perspective. I found the worship to be inspiring with a highly talented team.

Great community of believers. We are looking forward to getting plugged in here and serving alongside the amazing people.

Stand less than 2 feet from you and standing at the alter as the prayer group and not even one time act like that they know you or speak to you is a little dishearting to me as what a Christian is suppose to be!!!

But, desiring community in our new town forces us to search. Checking out the websites and the "what we believe" section, it seems like everyone just copies and pastes that whole thing changing just a few sentences. But really. We all know Jesus is the Son of God, the Bible is infallible and the Holy Spirit is here now. What about those deeper issues that can show the true heart of a congregation? These are the foundations of a congregation and will influence the teachings and the atmosphere of a church. I encourage you to email your prospective churches and ask the hard questions. Our situation now: Covid has been raging for half a year, George Floyd protests have exposed our deep sin and the protests have started to calm down a bit. You can love our Country and yet want to make it better. The sin of racism has wound its roots deep within our hearts. From the first "joke" our uncle made when we were little to our hastened footsteps as we walk down the street. When our power is challenged and our comfort threatened a Christians true colors are revealed. Such is the case at this church. My email asked questions such as what do they think about Black Lives Matter, shrouding of the Vance memorial, and AVLs historic reparations vote. The answers to my questions were disheartening. I encourage you to look past the typical "what we believe" and ask the hard questions to a prospective church. Be the Bridge by Latasha Morrison is a great resource to examine your heart on the matter. Because of this book I was able to clearly recognize the false doctrine I was presented by this pastor.
