Through pastoral changes and other challenges which come with a large group of people, SPC has stayed focused on the teachings of Christ. As for reviewers who have said this church is only for the wealthy, nothing, in my mind, could be farther from the truth. I've attended for more than 18 years and have never seen this church act or minister in an elitist way. Everyone is welcome. It is possible that people who disagree wit the Bible will not be thrilled. This is a Bible based church. It isn't a church trying to score hard left wing or hard right wing political positions. It is trying to teach the words and teachings of Christ Jesus and his followers as laid out in the Word.

Wow, you can review church? The idea is either sacrilege or divinely inspired, I guess, depending…read moreon your point of view. I'm okay with either. (Background moment: I grew up Lutheran -- and I can never really get away from it. No matter how hard I try, the liturgy and the fellowship and the really bad coffee keep calling me back.) So last December, I got nostalgic for the beautiful Advent services I attended as a kid. I Googled Lutheran churches in the area that offer them. It turns out that the conservative Missouri Synod is the only branch of local Lutherans that still do these, so I found myself at Living Savior on a Wednesday evening. Now, I am not anything that might be called conservative in a political or religious sense, so I thought it might be a little odd attending at a place where the belief structure is likely to be the polar opposite of my own. Nope. I was greeted sincerely by literally every person I encountered. Nobody was pushy, but everyone invited me to ask questions, attend on Sundays, check out the choir, etc. The pastor, a calm, confident sort of person who made me feel quite at home, made a point of talking with me after service. The service itself was Holden Evening Prayer, a modern sung liturgy that I've loved since I first encountered it years ago. If you have ever sung H.E.P, this will be a major plus point in your book. I enjoyed my experience, and I went back twice. (Then I ran out of Advent.) I still get the newsletter, and I'm not opposed to going back sometime. I'd definitely recommend Living Savior to anyone looking to attend service as a visitor or as a potential member.

The pastors are warm hearted, fun and most important, they have awesome sermons.

This church has helped me grow spiritually. It is the best church I have ever attended. The worship and praise is good but my preference would like them to be a little more charismatic. Sunday School is great and you can trust the staff to protect your children along with good teaching of God's word. Women's Bible study is great with loving staff to take good care of your little ones. I highly recommend Calvary Chapel East.

Full disclosure: I've been attending Pearl Church for about 8 years, so obviously I like it…read more What I won't do: get in to Theology or politics or moralizing outside of some higher-level descriptors. I don't think anything more is helpful for a Yelp review. What I will do: talk about the aspects that a visitor might care about in a "global" sense. The Basics: 1. It is a non-denominational Christian church. It is Bible-focused and Jesus' name is observed often. Many would classify it as "Evangelical", but some Evangelicals would consider Pearl Church too liturgical and structured. The theology is quite orthodox, but it is actually not a very conservative community - despite the worship style. 2. The demographics reflect those of the Pearl District. All are welcome and hospitality is the name of the game. 3. It is in the Ecotrust building - top floor conference room. The Good: 1. The worship musicians are set off to the side and in a corner - not front/center and loud like other places. This was especially refreshing to me. 2. There is a seriousness and earnestness hidden in the seemingly conservative worship style. 3. The message is always given by a qualified person and is actually quite practical and convicting - but not in a damning way. In the sort of way that makes you want to leave a be a better human. 4. There are two restaurants right downstairs (Hot Lips Pizza and Laughing Planet Cafe) that open during the end of the service and you can hear the music coming through the floor during the sermon. There's something about that dichotomy that has always pleased me. Something about living in community and accepting each other. Also, it makes for two killer options for a bite and a drink afterward. 5. When you're done, go play at Jamison Park. You're welcome. The Less Good: 1. It can be hard to find given its location in a conference room on the top floor or a building few know about. 2. Some times of year there are two services and some times (usually summer) there is only one...you'll have to check the website first. 3. It can get crowded, but people will always try to find you a good seat. 4. It's always hard to break the ice when you're a newcomer at a church. My experience was that it's just as hard for a regular to break the ice too...nobody wants to feel pounced on. What to do about it? Eye contact and say "hi", I guess. 5. The coffee is good, but they don't server real cream...just the little packets. Oh well. I should cut back anyway! Anyone else have any questions? Thanks for letting me give an honest 5 stars. They would love to know what to improve on, so I hope this helps kick off more reviews with more critical observations.
