I enjoyed worshipping at Converge Church. First impression is everything and they scored a 10/10. From the parking entrance, there are attendants directing the flow of traffic. We had elders with us; one in a wheelchair. They assisted with unloading the wheelchair from the car and rolling it into the Worship Center.
Upon entry into the building, there's a lobby/Welcome Center with refreshments (water, coffee, granola bars, and other snacks). There were church members welcoming us and encouraging us to take refreshments into the Worship Center with us. The ladies restroom was spotless. They had amenities such as hand soap, lotion, feminine products, paper towels, etc. The lobby had ample tables, chairs, and couches.
The Worship Center was nicely air conditioned and clean. The chairs were cushioned and comfortable. Songs lyrics were on the projector screen to facilitate participation. At one point during the sermon, a man walked the aisle with a box of Kleenex for those who needed it. It's like they thought of every convenience.
I felt welcomed. The pastor was well spoken, easy to understand, and sometimes long winded. The message of the sermon was relatable. My takeaways:
- You are allowed to not be okay, but you are not allowed to stay that way. "Go forth without sin." God gives us grace.
- "Truth without grace is mean. Grace without truth is meaningless." Always tell the truth in love.
I encourage everyone to receive the word of Christ here. read more
