If you're looking for a 9Marks church, or a church where the sermon is based off of the Bible, DO…read moreNOT come here. The pastor may be enthusiastic or charismatic, but he is a showman. He paces around the stage and raises his voice. During bits of quiet, he'd clap...then clap again.. and again, until someone else finally clapped some too. He wanted affirmation. This was a show for him. After 30 minutes into the service, we left. No mention of God, the Bible, and definitely no passages were read in that time. What kind of church doesn't read the Bible or focus on GOD's Word, instead of the pastor's? There was absolutely nothing gained from that 30 minutes. I only lost time, and worried what my kids might be, or might not be, getting taught in their classrooms. Starting off the service(after the music) with links and asking for tithes, really put us off. That's something that belongs at the end, honestly. Otherwise, it is predatory of your feelings after singing music to God. This church needs to rethink how they worship God, delve into the Bible more, and the pastor needs a serious check.

Beautiful praise and worship with powerful teachings of the Word. My family and I attended this church for three months just before hurricane Florence forced us to relocate. I never noticed it then, but there was a seed that was planted during our very short time here. Years later, I am proud to call DCI home and my family. I never believed I would drive an hour and fifteen minutes one way to church, but when you are in this spirit filled atmosphere, surrounded by those who genuinely love you, bring out the best in you and help build you up through your spiritual growth and relationship with Father... you just can't get there fast enough.

I don't know, but somehow this church does it multiple times a week, week-in and week-out without fail. Every time I come to this church for service it feels as though the pastor is speaking directly to me alone, and not just about what he pre-planned during the week, but about what I really need to hear regarding issues that I am facing in my life. I have been to numerous churches of many different denominations, and this is truly the first and only church I can say that I feel right at home. As soon as my family and I walk in the door of the children's wing, we're greeted by a lovely and welcoming staff member to check our young children in for Sunday School, then it's off to the main sanctuary to hear this week's sermon, but you better get there early, otherwise you'll be stuck standing in the back of the room (which isn't a bad thing, but it is nice to sit down). The live band always performs top-tier modern gospel music to get the congregation into a worshiping spirit! And the head-pastor, Jason, is a master of delivering the Good Word in a way that truly draws you in and holds your attention. Just this morning I had the thought multiple times how it felt as if Paster Jason was speaking only to me. I understand that choosing a church is a deeply personal experience based on multiple criteria, and I can only speak to my own personal experiences, but I have seriously never had a single bad experience at this campus. God bless!

I attended the seminar and not one time did he ask for money. He had books that we could purchase at the end of his seminar but you were not pressured into purchasing it. He even volunteered his time to come give the seminar for FREE all the way from Atlanta, Georgia. He's originally from this area and I'm glad he still cares about the community enough to come give back. That seminar has changed my life and opened my eyes to new methods I could implement on my on financial journey to wealth and wisdom. If you're in the Atlanta, Georgia area and you hear of an event that he's giving, I HIGHLY recommend that you attend. You'll thank me later.
