Services are friendly and informal. Lots of small groups for people to join and opportunities to serve Jesus and the community. Oh, and about that "women in ministry" thing: From it's founding in Pilot Point Texas in 1908, through the founding of McMinnville Church of the Nazarene by a woman pastor in 1911, the Church of the Nazarene has always honored and will continue to honor the pastoral gifts of women and the spirit of Anna (Luke 2:36), Junia (Romans 16:7), Priscilla (Acts 18) and recognize Paul's admonition against women pastors as applying to a particular troublesome church. We are all enriched when each faithful member of our community uses their gifts in service to the Lord and as Galatians 3:28 says, "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." We'd invite people looking for that kind of unity in Jesus to join us at Church on the Hill.

Nazarene has been wrong from the start, so have many other churches that don't use context to…read moreunderstand scripture. We attend here off and on. God has ordained that only men are to serve in positions of spiritual teaching authority in the church. This does not imply men are better teachers or that women are inferior or less intelligent. It is simply the way God designed the church to function. Men are to set the example in spiritual leadership--in their lives and through their words. We women are also to set an example in our lives, but in a different way (1 Peter 3:1-6). Women are encouraged to teach other women (Titus 2:3-5). The Bible also does not restrict women from teaching children. The only activity women are restricted from is teaching or having spiritual authority over men. This bars women from serving as pastors over men. This does not make us women less important, by any means; rather, it gives us a ministry focus more in agreement with God's design. We women have a high calling of raising a family, getting our home in order, and submitting and taking care of the needs of our Husbands. Our husbands are the head and soul of the family. We women are the heart, and together are one body as our lord designed for the family. It would be out of God's will for any woman to be a pastor. Paul says "a pastor, elder" must be the husband of one wife, not a wife of one husband. God is the same today, yesterday, and tomorrow, so if Paul were going to church today, he would be saying the same thing. Men's ways change due to sin, but God doesn't.

I can only tell you my personal testimony…read more In my twenty's, I was definitely going down the wrong road! I wanted to find a church, and a preacher that would preach what the Word of God said, and not just what I wanted to hear. I wanted to know how to be saved according to the Bible, and put my own ideas a side. (Because my ideas were what got me on the wrong road in the first place!) My husband & I started having a Bible study with another couple, and the word of God came alive to me! For the first time ever, I saw how to be saved! It hasn't always been easy, but that is when God's unfailing faithfulness steps on the scene to help! From the day I decided to make a commitment to Jesus, to this very day, God has blessed me! He has done so many amazing things in my life, including healing me of cancer! I give this church and our leadership 10 stars. I give Jesus a thousand hallelujahs and a million stars...
