What’s The Last Church You Visited?
I got to spend the day with the Oak Leaf Church team on Sunday.
Oak Leaf is in Cartersville, GA and are doing something special.
They are meeting in a converted club called House Of Rock and have totally flipped that place into a sweet gathering spot.
Their team is sold out to the vision.
If you cut them they bleed Jesus and Oak Leaf.
I had a blast.
When is the last time you left your local church to visit another and what were they doing well?

RAIN IT DOWN
I have been visiting a church in St. Louis called the Journey. The pastor is Darrin Patrick one of the big dogs in Acts 29 network. Love his teaching and love the church.
I might stop being a visitor and be a regular attender.
I have also attended buckhead and lifechurch a lot over the last month through the online campus. Really been enjoying that as well.
It's been awhile since I've visited another church so I'm not really sure which one it was. But we're planning to visit McLean Bible Church in VA next weekend. Heard that they have RNs on-site, which would be AWESOME since we haven't taken our medically fragile daughter to church in a couple of years…meaning that we haven't been to church as a whole family in a couple of years.
It's been way too long. And since conferences don't really count – I'm not sure when the last time was.
That's something that needs to be remedied.
Just last week a handful of us went and checked out CCV, a beastly church in West Phoenix. Stole plenty of ideas.
The last time I visited a church was RockHarbor in Orange County…they do community real well! The create a feeling of home and intimacy even though it is a big church. The talked about Jesus undeniable, unashamed and in love
I can't remember what the last church I visited was. It was a long time ago. I did, however, do worship for a conference of the Colorado Chinese Christian Joint Retreat this past year and it was definitely a different experience. The odd thing (which shouldn't be an odd thing) is that everyone knew all the lyrics to every song and everyone sang at the top of their lungs, and were happy to do it. Why doesn't this happen in churches in Denver? I don't know.
Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but in China they'll worship for hours upon hours on end and in caves at that…passionate, tear filled, and loud. I know the group you led was in the States, but it appears that when other cultures embrace Christianity they have a better understanding of it than those of us who have had the privilege of growing up with it in our faces.
We visited MAnchester Christian Church in New Hampshire in August. I rreally like this church!
I just moved to Atlanta, so it's been nothing but visits for me.
The last church I visited was the last church I had to visit. I stopped in on a Sunday Am service to check it out, as it was only 2 miles from home. The pastor visited me a couple of days later and I told him I was just “church shopping.” They were clearly filled with Christ’s love, and I never visited another church – Tri Lakes Community Church in Bristol, IN.
After I got to Waco for college, I visited several churches. After over two years here, I finally visited Antioch Community Church. This was the last church I had to visit. Everyone was overflowing with the love of Christ, and the community group (Lifegroup) that I’m in keeps me going from week to week. They also happen to have great music, although I personally prefer exigetical teaching to the topical teaching that they do. I’ve currently been going there for over a year.
MCC/Grace Midtown down the road from Atlantic Station. Wholly (and Holy) Passionate, Batman!!
Thanks for coming and hanging out Carlos! You're rad. And the last church I visited was Freedom Church.
