I grew up in the SDA church but my husband is not SDA and he mentioned a few things he enjoyed that were not typical of the SDA churches we've been to--The table seating (no rows) and come-as-you-feel attire was a pleasant surprise. He was nervous wearing jeans because he feared it wasn't "sda church appropriate" but he relaxed when he saw the pastor wearing jeans, too! He also pointed out the way the offering and tithe was collected was different-no "God needs our money" spiel. When we come back to the Chattanooga area, we'll definitely attend again.

I find the people sweet kind and loving people but I am concerned with the message and the way they convey Gods message. You have Block buster Sunday where this pass Sunday you based your message on Andy and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. While I realize your intentions were good they were missing the true teachings of God. Sunday is the Lords day. A day to honor and worship to God. It's his holy day. I felt that God was not fully honored. This way Of teaching may be ok for children ages 3 to 8 but not on a Sunday. Maybe on a Wed. Nite service. Also you had brite flashing lights like on a Broadway musical And dancers up on stage and one lady(last week) dressed in a very small outfit that had sequins and was not appropriate in showing God honor. The flashing lights From what I ve read in previous reviews cause people with health issues to have seizures. And I can testify that the music While I too love loud music this made my chest vibrate. Please know I know many of Your members and I love them as well as all of you and I ve been in much prayer about this and asked God to guide in my words not to offend but only to advise. I just felt God was not honored or put first.

3.5 stars We recently moved from out of states and have been looking for a church to call home. I…read morewent here by myself one time and then brought my daughter and husband a second time. The worship was so God honoring a beautiful and the message was good. The only thing that was missing to us, was it was not very welcoming. Although people appeared to be connecting to one another which was beautiful to see. There was nothing addressing newcomers, someone walking in new, no greeters, no way of knowing what was next if you wanted this to become your church home. The space is limited so no place really to connect (like lobby, this one is VERY small) Definitely needs some sort of way for new combers to feel welcomed even if it was mentioned from the pupit, like if this is your first time, we would like to welcome you and so in so is available for questions after the service, or please fill out this welcome card and one of our staff will contact you. Just really lacked in this area. But I have to say the worship was so beautiful.

Not sure who, but they're probably French. What I love about this church is the massive cross they have put on the highway which everybody can see going by. It's a real landmark and it's very cool. Anything like that, which gives a city character, and memorable iconic images, can only be a good thing. What I don't love about this church is that the design of the actual church is pretty nondescript and modern industrial (boring). However, the crosses earn the 3 stars.
