And every Sunday there has been one or more young families with very young children make too much noise. Literally overpowering the rest of the congregation's meditation and mass concentration including the priest homily. Where I grew up going to my old neighborhood church. The young families that would attend ,when one of their children was uncontrollably loud one of the parents would excuse themselves with their loud child and go outside and try to quiet their love one. Thus showing consideration and respect for the rest of the congregation. This is a weekly problem at Immaculate Heart of Mary. And we have been attending this mass for over two years now.

I figured hey I find our dentist, vet, food places here why not weed through the churches this way too. If you are anything like me, church "shopping" isn't fun BUT so important to find the right fit for you and your family. For me personally I was looking for strong children's, kid's, teen programs, mom programs and mens programs. Sometimes a church will have one or maybe two of the above but usually not all...unless they are a mega church and that in itself is a problem for me personally. After looking at several other churches in the Oakley and Brentwood area I went back online and literally pulled up every church website in the area and started looking again. At that point I stumbled on Brentwood Neighborhood Church's website http://www.brentwoodnc.org . It is located next to edna middle school in the older downtown area. It offered alot. I was pretty excited. After attending our first service my kiddos, hubby and I said "hey I think this is "the one". :) PRO's: Everyone we met was SO welcoming and friendly. They have first time visitor parking right in front. Usually a greeter right there who will help direct you to where you go especially if you have kids to drop off this is so valuble. AWESOME children's ministry. We have 3 kiddos, one in nursery, one in the 3-4 room and one in the k-5 room. After each Sunday school the kids leave with weekly lessons that are age appropriate that you can do with them during the week to keep the "theme" of that weeks bible study going if you wish. The staff to child ratio is really good too. For nursery they give you a pager and will buzz you if they need you. Pastors Destined and Dave are wonderful and easy to talk too. They each preach wonderfully. The offer 3 service times. ALL WITH CHILDCARE. Let me repeat that. ALL TIMES WITH CHILDCARE. Service times are: 9am, 11am, and 5:05pm. That in itself is great since if you have someone into watching sports (cough cough like my hubby) or someone who plays sports you can pick the service that works best for that day for you. Women's ministry is strong. They offer a group that meets on Tuesday mornings called Simply Moms. Your kiddos get to play with kiddos their age while under care of the BNC staff you you get to get breakfast with other moms as well as do a craft or hear a speaker. It is pretty awesome. Very strong teen/preteen ministry. One thing that struck me is how involved the kids in this age group are. This is a good indicator of a healthy church. Recovery 12 step Christ based group that meets on Thursdays. I haven't attended it but I am very glad that this is offered. Coffee. Yes this is a pro! Free coffee is always a good thing. :) Wonderful playground in the far back of the church. If you have wild child's like mine this is a great way to burn energy as well as know they are safe since it is the back of the church. Check it out. :)

That service was beautiful and genuinely moving, and it made me feel hopeful that I had found a place I could continue coming back to. Over the following weeks, I've had a very positive experience with the youth pastor, Cyrus. He has been thoughtful, compassionate, and engaging, funny and he reflects the kind of leadership and tone I was hoping to find in a church community. Unfortunately, my experience with the lead pastor, Phil, has been very different. His preaching style comes across as condescending and more academic than pastoral. Services often feel like a lecture focused on technical definitions and word analysis rather than spiritual guidance, reflection, or connection. I came to church to deepen my faith and sense of community, not to sit through what feels like an English or college Bible class. In addition, sermons frequently drift into political territory, with firm lines drawn on complex and deeply personal issues. That approach feels out of touch with the role I would expect a pastor to play and ultimately made it difficult for me to continue attending. Because of this, I've decided to continue my search for a church home elsewhere. That said, I would absolutely consider attending again if Cyrus were preaching, as his approach aligns much more closely with what I'm looking for in a church.

No sermon; three songs, then a VIDEO of someone giving a sales pitch (yes, it felt like a sales pitch) about becoming a foster parent or supporter. This took up the ENTIRE worship time.

IMHO this should have been a 5-minute discussion with "if you'd like more info you can go to the welcome center and watch a video". I hesitate going back, as the first impression left a taste in my mouth of "social justice warrior group" instead of community and worship. Don't get me wrong - I think church groups can provide services to the greater community and foster volunteerism among the congregation.
