I recently attended a church service and left feeling deeply disappointed and disturbed by some of…read morethe teachings I heard. The speaker made several statements that shocked me: That it is not Satan's fault if a person sins after salvation, but entirely their own. That Satan cannot tempt a person after they are saved. That a blind man cannot be tempted because he cannot see. Additionally, the pastor preached that speaking in tongues is proof of salvation. I was honestly flabbergasted. I could not believe what I was hearing. First, the idea that a blind person cannot be tempted makes no sense. Temptation does not depend only on sight. A person has other senses, thoughts, emotions, and desires. Temptation can come through many avenues. Second, speaking in tongues is not proof of salvation. The Bible teaches that we are known by our fruit. Jesus said we would recognize His people by their fruit -- not by spiritual gifts. Nowhere did He say that speaking in tongues is the evidence of salvation. The fruit of Christ -- love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control -- is the true biblical evidence of a transformed life. Furthermore, Scripture clearly shows that believers can still be tempted. Even Jesus Himself was tempted after His baptism. If the Lord was tempted, how can anyone claim that Christians cannot be tempted after salvation? While we are responsible for our choices, to suggest that Satan has no role in temptation contradicts what the Bible teaches about spiritual warfare. The enemy still seeks to deceive and tempt believers. Hearing the congregation applaud these statements was troubling to me. These teachings do not align with what I understand Scripture to say, and it caused me serious concern about the direction of that church.

Such a wonderful service. You can tell God is moving in these people. This is the church my mom got…read moresaved at over thirty years ago when it was just one small building. It's so beautiful to see how it's grown to multiple locations. The Gulfport campus was so large and has so many buildings it was a bit overwhelming. It's kind of the only reason it's not five stars. This church is definitely too large to only have one service. There should definitely be at least two services. It was a bit overwhelming. But that's still such a beautiful thing that people are so hungry for Gods word that there's a need for this.

The Bridge Church - A True Hidden Gem…read more I've been to churches all over the country, and I rarely leave reviews like this--but The Bridge is special. The first time I visited, the message hit me straight in the heart. I thought, "This preacher is truly anointed." I kept coming back. The pastors--Leanne and Cliff--alternate Sundays and genuinely care about teaching God's love in a real, relatable way. No guilt trips. No pressure. Just truth, grace, and encouragement to grow at your own pace. The community is small, diverse, and incredibly welcoming. You're noticed if you're gone, but never pressured. You're accepted as you are, no matter how you dress or what kind of week you've had. This church isn't flashy--no robes, no megachurch vibe--but the worship band could rival the pros, and the sermons feel like God is answering your private prayers. Communion is offered every week, and there are small groups to connect with others throughout the week. They recently became independent from the United Methodist Church, choosing to stay true to their mission as a Wesleyan Methodist community. And honestly? It feels like the kind of place Jesus Himself could walk into and feel at home. Whether you're new to church, burned out, or just looking for a place to explore faith without judgment--check it out. You don't have to believe to belong. You can come, rest, listen, and just be. I never expected to find a new church home. But I did. And I don't go because I have to. I go because--I get to.
