Even though we've moved away, this church will always feel like home to us. Every time we're back in town, we make it a priority to attend. Pastor Jim and his wife Dena are such a blessing ~ genuine, welcoming, and truly caring. Their love for the Lord and for people shines through in everything they do. We're so thankful for the time we were part of this church family. read more

This church, like many others, fits the criteria of a cult and is no way, shape or form serving the "god" they claim to. I don't even know where to begin regarding my experience here but I will say there are a handful of truly genuine people here who do wish the best for others and have beautiful hearts, but it is a rarity here. This church encouraged me to stay in an abusive situation and refused to help me. They had so many resources and when I finally had the courage to speak up about what I was going through, I was judged and referred to a leader. He made me send him an email of my issues, and then quite literally ghosted me. It came to my attention that these "leaders" were also discussing and mocking my very private and personal situation with others. I did not fit in to their "mold" of what a woman should be and look like, so I was very harshly judged by everyone but especially by the women (mostly the 18-40 crowd) of the church. To say that it felt like I was in grade school with "mean girls" is an absolute understatement - it was petty, childish, immature and extremely overt. They didn't even try to hide their judgment, just overt looks of disgust, glaring and outright othering me and my son. This othering was also apparent when I attended a membership meeting and applied for membership TWICE only to be completely ghosted both times while others who applied at the same time as me were given membership. I am thankful for this blessing in disguise now. I also think it had something to do with the fact that I had no monetary value to offer them, and it is apparent that they go after people who can bring them money and status. The first thing they asked my ex was what he did for work, it was another overt tactic. I did volunteer regularly though but I guess my physical appearance and inability to provide money to them at the time made me worthless to them. That was quite evident. Most importantly, my son attended the separate daycare here for about a month, 2 days per week, for a half day each time. He came home one day completely inconsolable, and when asked what was wrong, he alleged that a teacher had touched his private part inappropriately and hit him. I followed my pediatrician's instructions and took him to the hospital, where the doctor agreed that something must have happened to him because 3 year olds don't just make that up. The hospital opened up an investigation into the school, and I notified the school immediately about what my son alleged. CPS and the state did an investigation but the incident was alleged to occur in the bathroom, where there are obviously no cameras. The local police were part of the investigation as well but quickly dismissed it because the investigating police officer was a leader and attendee at the church....definitely not a coincidence. He sat with me and my son for 10 minutes and basically tried to say my son probably just misunderstood what happened. It was a disgusting and absolutely disgraceful display by an agency that is supposed to protect the community and especially its children. More of that story can be found on Quora here: https://www.quora.com/Have-you-ever-been-betrayed-by-your-pastor/answer/Christina-Celeste-8?ch=17&oid=398474322&share=b20bda2e&srid=u8FcC0&target_type=answer But because there wasn't any substantial physical evidence to prove the allegations nor camera footage to corroborate my son's allegations, the case was closed and I was left to pick up the pieces.y som definitely experienced something and I believe him. But not one person in leadership ever tried to contact us or discuss it despite my very generous and gracious attempts at speaking with them about it. This place is just another religious cult that seeks a certain demographic to help line their pockets and give themselves status in the community. I wouldn't at all be surprised if sexual abuse was rampant in this church and victims are too afraid and too brainwashed to come forward. Let's not at all mention how they humiliated one of their youth pastors publicly and put his marital issues on blast after firing him. This place is disgusting and is not safe for anyone that is LGTBQ+, with mental illness, victims of any kind of abuse or women who don't fit their white, Christian nationalism mold for what a woman should be. Stay far away from this place. read more

The Freedom Center - Easter at FCC - Churches Near Me - Fenton, Michigan

See all

My family has been warmly welcomed and loved weekly at Freedom Center since January of this year. It is a great thing to have my toddlers and teenagers excited to go to church twice a week! My oldest son also participates in the young adult ministry every Monday evening which has been such an encouragement to him since graduating high school and choosing to go to college locally. Our family is so blessed to be a part of such a wonderful congregation. read more

My husband and I and our family have attended Freedom Center Church for a while. What first drew me to this church was their love for the local community. Our first Sunday attending, Pastor Jim began his sermon by first praying for all the other churches in town that were currently in a Sunday service. He listed the ministers by name and prayed a blessing over them as they spoke God's Word. I was so impressed and encouraged that this church was willing to humbly serve along-side other local congregations without feeling superior or threatened. While FCC has it's own contemporary feel, they clearly portray the greater message that we are all (every Christian church) part of God's larger family. Having come from a non-denominational background, that was extremely important to me. FCC is affiliated with The Assembly of God denomination, one of the largest Christian denominations in the world. Still the church has it's own personality and embraces a warm small town welcome. We have had the opportunity to serve in many different ministries from Children's Church, small group classes, community outreach, etc. In every case we have seen a tremendous grace, love and respect shown for the Fenton and surrounding community. There is no perfect place. Only Christ himself is perfect. But I'm so proud to call this my church family! read more

The Freedom Center - Humility is then Pride The music at the beginning is inspiring and comforting... - Churches Near Me - Fenton, Michigan

There are many genuine, kind people at the Freedom Center but sadly, the bad outweighs the good here. Years after I left, I was told that while I attended the young adults group, that leaders would have meetings discussing plans to make me stop taking my psych meds and to end the relationship I was in. I was unaware of these discussions happening when I attended this church. Multiple church leaders told me that in order to overcome my mental health issues I just needed to read the bible more and pray more. I witnessed humiliation tactics at this church through forced apologies between members and innapropriate confessions in front of the congregation. I witnessed the members of this church socially shun minors that came out as LGBTQ+ and I witnessed the youth pastor marry a girl very soon after she turned 18. I witnessed a pastor openly laughing at members of the local community for wondering if The Freedom Center is a cult. Their financial ministry Kingdom Builders is an outsourced million dollar business, not just the financial ministry for this church as they advertise it. In my opinion, this place is NOT safe for LGBTQ+, children, or people with mental health issues. This church fits many aspects of the BITE model of mind control. read more
