I don't seek out attention and like to hang in the shadows (so to speak). I won't lie and say I didn't enjoy the free coffee, located to the right when you walk in. Ok, so coffee is a good reason to see if you like a place, right? I did grab a cup on my way in. They get extra points for making nice, strong, coffee. I took a seat in the back row (normal for me). Several people stopped by to introduce themselves and say "hi". Initially, I had no idea one of them was Pastor Nate. Every one is very down to Earth and welcoming. I didn't feel like I was a stranger. There is a definite sense of belonging. They have a nursery, youth group, and even a young adult group, in addition to other ways for adults to connect and serve. All in all, it was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience. I will be going back this Sunday as well.

From the moment I walked in, I felt something real. Even my younger boys loved it and couldn't stop talking about how much they enjoyed being there. The atmosphere is deeply spiritual yet warm and welcoming--like coming home. The space is clean, the people are kind, supportive, and genuinely there to help guide you without judgment. The worship band? Absolutely soul-stirring. And the preacher speaks in a way that reminds me of that one guidance counselor who truly cares--someone who helps you find clarity and direction when you need it most. If you've ever felt disconnected or just been searching for something more, I can't recommend this place enough.

"This is not a suggestion it is a clear prohibition from the mouth of the Son of God Himself.... But doesn't the Bible command us to discern? The answer is yes. Discernment is necessary. In 1Corinthians 5:12 Paul affirms there is a responsibility to judge those who are within the community of faith....(16.40) "It requires an honest dialogue with God and it is precisely in this place of real humility that another dimension of the relationship with God begins to be revealed. It is one that religion often confuses distorts or simply ignores. Making God's house a marketplace. Among all the scenes recorded in the gospel there is one that surprises even the most seasoned Christians familiar with Bible stories. It was not the calming of the storm nor the multiplication of the loaves it was a scene of deliberate and purposeful violence~ Jesus Christ the same one who taught to turn the other cheek who healed lepers with tenderness and welcomed children with love made a whip with His own hands and entered the temple turning everything upside down. No gospel softens this moment. The Bible preserved it exactly as it happened. Matthew 21:12-13 records it bluntly ...."and Jesus entered the temple of God and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple and He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons." He said to them "It is written My house shall be called a house of prayer but you make it a den of robbers." It was not an impulsive gesture or a passing emotional reaction. It was the clearest expression that there is something God simply does not tolerate and that the Christian faith must face with complete honesty. What was the issue with those sellers? Superficially they were offering a service~ the pigeons were for sacrifices the money changers exchanged coins so that pilgrims could pay the temple tax it was convenient practical apparently necessary and that is exactly where the spiritual danger lies. When commercial convenience begins to occupy sacred space it does not appear as sacrilege it even seems to be serving God. But Jesus Christ saw it differently and the Bible recorded that He did not just speak He acted. Today the setting has changed but not the essence~ holy water sold in bottles consecrated ointments with a label and a price tickets for prophetic conferences raffles and bizarres within the temples themselves all packaged with spiritual language all justified as support for the ministry. The faith of simple people who enter that place genuinely seeking the presence of God ends up being being treated as a market opportunity -- what should be a house of prayer has slowly been transformed into a showcase for sacred products. It is important to understand that Jesus Christ's indignation was not against the money itself. The Bible never forbade churches from receiving offerings or ministers from being supported by the gospel. The problem was the wrong place with the wrong motivation. The space consecrated for worship have been turned into a commercial point. John 2:16 reports the same episode with the detail that cuts deep. Jesus said that His Father's house had been turned into a "house of trade." The Father's house. Not just any structure~ a space for communion for reverence for a genuine encounter with the eternal. The call that resonates here is for discernment. True faith knows how to distinguish what serves God from what serves profit in the name of God and when this discernment begins to be refined within someone contradictions that went unnoticed some of them even more subtle than a stall of products inside the temple" This is why the Prosperity Gospel is a problem. It is just not about money~they've created an entirely new gospel out of it all! (This isn't simply about making a profit off of God ~it's that it goes almost exclusively to the pastor and those he surrounds himself with. I called them "the Yes Men." If anyone corrects the pastor's behavior they are out. The prosperity gospel is vile. There's no other way to put it.) And that's why we've lost Christianity here in America. Unbelievers do not need that which is greedy and rebellious for they themselves are greedy and rebellious. Galatians 1:8-9 "But even if we or an angel from heaven preaches any other gospel to you than what we have preached, let him be accursed." These verses emphasize staying faithful to original apostolic teachings and rejecting false teachers who distort the gospel. My purpose is not to bring down any one church or any one person; it is to lift them up and lead them to repentance. I had to repent for my involvement. (Repenting is easy. The more you do it the easier it gets!) Amen. https://youtu.be/WmnoShOkMpc?si=7HLTqknfohquPbGY
