This is the best church I have ever attended - and I've attended MANY. It's a small church where…read moreeveryone gets to know one another, and it's an incredibly active church as well. I've enjoyed not only the worship services, where everyone is free to share their joys or ask for prayer, but also other activities such as picnics, choir concerts, dinners, etc. The best way to describe what it's like going to this church is to imagine what it would be like at a really fun family reunion or a night with friends. Very welcoming and fun, and it's like that every week. Even though it's a small church, I've seen them do a lot to help the community, and there is a really strong focus on helping the immediate community. Don't be afraid to give this church a try. It's very casual; you can wear a suit or you can wear jeans and a sweatshirt. The congregation has a variety of backgrounds, and there were about 14 countries represented by the membership at last count. It's hard to find that type of integration in churches nowadays, but they've managed to do it because they truly welcome everyone into the church each week.

If you ever hope to confirm your own autism or feel like a legitimate, Bible Scholar; go and…read moreworship the Lord and learn God's Word; at an exceedingly accurate, Bible Centric, no nonsense church called Calvary Chapel in Ellicott City. Out from behind the Lectern, The Pastor is painfully awkward and quiet. But all in on the Lord's Word, all the time. I find him distant and strange but solid like a Rock. Talking directly to the little people? Kind of like his Limp. And I think he would own that. Most people, just call him Dan. Distant Dan. I abhor the term but this surprisingly, un credentialed Rabbi, is "anointed". Like only a very, few teaching pastors of today. He preached this himself; not about himself. His list of remaining heavies, is not long. And they are all Old as dirt. So, the church, sorely needs communicators like Dan Sexton. And of course, he is on the Radio. I helped pay for that. No Complaints. They should pay Him! LD, I struggled in school my entire life. But Dan Sexton, was by far, the best teacher I ever had. Intoxicating at times. It is an absolute joy to follow his lectures and never, really fall behind. But! Pin your ears back and bring a good reference bible. Shhhh!! However, I would contend, one of the great teaching Bible Colleges of America could use his services; way more than Eight hundred, privileged, highly attractive Colombians need him. Add in the hundreds of Radio Psincophants, who travel long distances to experience his teaching; but never grovel at his feet. He would not stand for it. And I was one of those super handsome, devoted students who made the journey, twice a week; before quietly departing- Mostly out of utter disillusionment; in said, Community. One person I really liked, and thought I connected well with; texts me a year later. "Hey, Brother; haven't seen you in church, lately." LOL! But seriously; if you have a Family or just want to hear about the Bible, in a one of a kind way; by all means, go! They have a school, now, too. The whole place is a Solid! And mid week service? They feed you! The music is as inspired and excellent as any other place, that large. Thank God! No, worship leaders, in skinny Jeans. And a great space to worship, in comfort. Though, even that seems to become mildly awkward and political, sometimes. Like Disco for Born Again, Christians. Love the Lord out Loud! Yeah, we do that. Oh yeah! Very little inside or outside Politics. Moderately Conservative, well above average, educated professionals. The kind of place, where the fancy 4 Star, guided trips to Israel, fill up within hours. The Pastor is definitely tops, there. And A new guy with Christian Wild Eyes; 2nd in command. Dave; in children's leadership. He quit the Army, when Biden took office. Too much FOX? No. Lol! But we have more than a few of those, too. Yes! A great meet and greet church, made up of Extroverts; but in my experience; smiling zeros. Perhaps, that is, my Limp, talking. But three years in? Autism? Felt more like leprosy. So, I smiled back, ate my free food and went to school, in the next room. An entire lifetime, more or less, of debilitating depression and self imposed, sheltering in place. Mental illness. Thursday night Church, at CCEC was my Saturday night out! Entire Sundays invested; like those all day football worshipers, which are the norm, today. They seemed to treat me distant and weird for hanging around there, so much. I was lonely. Was made to feel like an idiot; trying to lie and grunt for the millionth time. "Hey Brother? What, do, YOU, do for a living?" I'm an unemployed overeducated handyman. CALL ME! Jerk. Like the Mall. But not Saturday. So Go! Lend a face to the Radio Guy. "A Family." As many, actually, do remain.
