This is an AWESOME true Biblical nondenominational church where they literally go through the Bible…read morechapter by chapter, verse by verse, talk about biblical prophecy and is definitely a place to grow and worship. They have a potluck meal on the first Sunday of every month, are extremely friendly and they really do care about you. If you need a good home church, THIS IS IT! Big parking lot but smaller church feel. They have children's groups, coffee & mochaccinos for guests.

Going to the Gate Church has been a great experience. Solid Theology, incredible teaching that is…read morenot only God glorifying, but is applicable for the life of the believer. Its not one of those churches where it seems like you hear the same thing over and over. There seems to be a childlike exploration of the attributes of God that lead to understanding not only more about Him, but ones identity as a son or daughter of God. Good leadership, and excellent child care as well. I cant think of a time my wife or I didn't leave encouraged, as if the one who was teaching knew everything about us.

I was a member of Maranatha Church for 30 years, and a deacon the last 5 of that. When I first…read morestarted, although I disliked the pastor personally, I felt his teaching was sound. I was slowly sucked in, impressed by the biblical knowledge of not only the pastor, but of the general membership. However, what did not dawn on me was that general knowledge without the application of biblical principles based in love for your fellow man, just leads to arrogance, self-righteousness, cruelty, and destruction of others. It has taken me 10 years so far, and I am still not through purging this evil from my own life. The Doctrine of Separation has torn apart more families than I could ever begin to count. To my utter disgrace, I shunned lifelong friends and family. Then I got to experience the flip side after I left. I watched so-called "mature believers" ridicule a "baby believer", at one point even throwing her books in the floor, like high school mean girls, over jealousy. It was not her fault their husbands had wandering eyes. And I am ashamed that all I did was stand and watch in disbelief at this reprehensible behavior instead of putting a stop to it immediately. The slowly growing tolerance from the pulpit of adultery eventually led to wife-swapping and musical chairs on a widespread basis, even spreading to the ranks of the Board of Deacons. I actually penned a letter to the Board, and read it aloud in a Deacon's Meeting, (although I am sure that didn't make it into the Minutes). It, (and I) was dismissed without a second thought. By the time I became a deacon, Jack had had the Church Constitution amended to consolidate his power, so the Board of Deacons was there solely to rubber stamp decisions, carry out his wishes, and services his wants and needs, (which were quite extensive). Jack Ballinger refers to himself as a Pastor-Teacher, but all he does is teach what he wants. He is not a Pastor, as he does not believe in counseling, does not reach out to those in crisis, and ridicules those he feels are less "spiritual than himself, (which is everyone). Of 2 suicides in the church, (his son and mine), he was more hindrance than help, calling them cowards and weak. The fact of the matter is, WE failed those boys, as fathers, as counselors, and MOST OF ALL, as protectors of our family. There has been a homosexual child predator in the congregation for many years, directly protected by Jack Ballinger. Recently, (within the past few years) having found out about 2 more victims, that brings the total to 6 that I am personally aware of. I would guess there were probably many more, too ashamed, (as my sons were), to come out and admit it, especially in light of what DIDN'T happen with the previous encounters. There has been talk of Jack teaching Flat-Earth theory. I do not know about that. What I do know is that there have been a lot more evil and scandalous things to come from that man than some crackpot science. Why separate for that, and continue to perpetuate the much more evil teachings and practices of Maranatha Church, (and it's spinoff- Truth Bible Church)? If this letter keeps 1 person from falling into their grasp, it will have been worth my time to write this.

While visiting my sister in Oklahoma this July, our family--visiting from California--had the joy…read moreof experiencing Victory Church for the very first time. It was also her first time attending, and we were all truly blessed by it. From the moment we pulled into the parking lot, we were met with genuine smiles and joyful greetings from the parking team. The warmth was immediate. As we entered the sanctuary about 20 minutes before service began, the lobby was already filled with the buzz of community and connection--believers fellowshipping, laughing, a simply enjoying one another and the coffee. As we made our way to our seats, two greeters kindly shook our hands and welcomed us in. Then something truly special happened. A young man with special needs approached us--not with words, but with the purest joy--and extended his hand to each one of us in greeting. It was such a tender and powerful reminder of God's love expressed through His people. Just before service began, the church encouraged everyone to stand and greet one another--a thoughtful gesture that made what could feel like a large space feel personal and inviting. At that point, the sanctuary was still filling in. But by the time worship started, I looked back from our third-row seats and saw the entire room full--every heart engaged in praise. The message that day was on spiritual gifts, and it felt like the perfect word in the perfect place at the perfect time. Grateful for the opportunity to worship as a family and experience the presence of God in such a life-giving environment. Thank you, Victory Church, for welcoming us so well.

That's actually what drawn me to the church is that they care about picking up people, families and kids. The Pastor is very passionate and cares about others and what he is teaching.

We had a HORRIBLE experience where we almost lost our child due to lack of communication and ignorance of the daycare personnel. Our child had been having several seizures in one day while at daycare and the daycare NEVER contacted us to tell us what was going. When we picked up at our regular time, she was handed to me she was completely unconscious and foaming out her mouth. We left and immediately took her to the ER. Our baby went into a coma and spent several months in the hospital. To this day the daycare has not followed up with us to check on the well being of our child. Please do not trust these people with your kids!! We would hate for other people to experience what we have gone through. Check the DHS website and do your research before enrolling you child into any daycare.
