I loved going to Faith for about five years. There I met a community of committed Christians, who,…read morewhile more conservative than I, tended to focus on issues and problems that united the church rather than those that divide it. I served for years on the Hospitality team, just doing things like making strawberry basil lemonade and cucumber mint water for hundreds at a time, plus the monthly waffle night where we made hundreds of Belgian waffles with all the possible accoutrements. But I discovered my welcome was skin deep, even to those who pretended to love me (I'd even flown the Atlantic to cater a picnic in Paris for them), as I struggled with issues of homosexuality. The teaching staff was woefully undereducated on this issue, which was surprising considering it's massive impact in the culture wars. Long story short: I was given an ultimatum that I must not ever publicly state that homosexual relationships could be of equal moral value to heterosexual ones. If I didn't comply, I'd no longer be welcome. I didn't, and left, deeply hurt by the knowledge that my ostensible friends and "church family" chose their comfortable, lazy church where no one really questions anything over a deep, fruitful relationship of years standing.

I attended Mill City for a couple of years, and I think the church has many good people attending it and I've made many great connections through it. However, there's been what feels like a culture shift. It's difficult to completely put what I'm feeling into words, but I'll do my best here. With the move to a new building, I felt a shift in priorities. A lot of effort to look the part and have the "right" things a church should have, but the consequence is that I think the people of the church have fallen by the wayside. Even though the church will sometimes preach about the idea of grace and not earning your way to salvation, in practice, I think they paint a different picture. There has been so much emphasis on doing and action, and it lead me personally to extreme burnout. Between weekly practices, frequent calls to giving, and small groups, there is a sense that I felt that the church was always asking for everyone to "do a little more". For some examples, a member may be attending a city group, but they keep asking for a member to lead a city group. Or that member should join a class. But while in the class, they'll emphasize the next class, and the next action, and the next thing to be a part of, and the next serving opportunity. I think they've lost the point a bit. Sure, there'll be a sermon about sabbath, but there will still be a whisper behind you - "do a little more". All that is it's own thing. But then I had a conversation with someone in leadership about my perspective. The conversation itself went fine, but days after, I had a chilling feeling in my spirit. And looking back on the conversation, I feel undertones of emotional manipulation. It feels very. . . weird. All that to say, I've seen the church to good work, and I've met many good people there. But if you decide to attend this church, my advise would be to keep your guard up if they continually ask more from you. I would've given higher stars, but I can't shake the "off" feeling I have about my experience.

I have never felt so included and apart of a loving community. I was never a regular church goer…read moreuntil I wandered into this church over a year ago. Since then I have been religious (small pun) about going every Sunday. I truly feel grounded after a service from Pastor Ryan. He's informative not just from a biblical perspective but also from a human perspective. You leave feeling like you want to do better. The church focus on actual service- I've actually been involved in two volunteer projects and a fun Halloween event and witnessed their "boots on the ground" approach. If you're looking for a place where you can worship, learn, and not feel judged in the process- I would give this church a chance. The music is good, space is lovely, and the people are what make it.

Visited this church recently. "This church used to have vibrant, extended worship and good ministry…read moreoutreach when the former Pastors (Rick & Becky) were leading. They had multiple elderly outreach ministries, which was wonderful. The new pastor got rid of them for no good reason. I don't know how we got this new Pastor (Jeff Foust), who has a problem with pride. He struts around the stage in that spirit of pride. His wife is wonderful and full of the Holy Spirit. However, I do not feel that from him. Many have left the church due to Jeff Foust and the decisions he is making without the church's buy in. Example: a building was donated to the church and he is trying to raise millions of dollars to improve something superficial about this building. What a waste! His idea of doing an outreach for the men in the church is to go out for beers and do axe-throwing." Everything in quotes was verbalized to me by a man who has been going there for years and used to love it. I heard about this on the day I attended for the first time. Clearly, people are not a fan of Jeff Foust. Who is holding him accountable and overseeing his decisions for the congregation? Millions of dollars? No one at that age has the wisdom and tenure to lead a church in a healthy way, in my humble opinion. I do not see a spirit of humility after one service, BUT I don't know him, either. Would like to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I have questions.. There were very few worship songs, which is not like a Vineyard church. Not sure I will be back.

We were visiting from Orlando to see some family and take a vacation. I love how BSF is basically in every major city all over the world so you can keep doing your weekly lesson and just get plugged in while you are traveling. You don't miss a beat. Next time we are in town we should come to an actual service but either way I can recommend checking this church out. Whether you are a traveling tourist like me looking to keep pace with BSF or just church shopping in general, you should give LifePointe a try.
