This is an amazing church!!! The messages are real, relevant, practical, challenging, and the messages, no matter what the topic, show the practical and real application to every day life through The Gosple of Jesus Christ. It really is the answer to everything, and this church, these messages, the worship, brings it all to light and shows how it all makes sense. The entire service is Christ-centered, yet it's done in a way that still engages those who are new to Christianity, or just exploring what that is.
Looking around at the congregation, it's quite a blend of people from all over the world. They truly embody what a church should look like, or even what heaven would like since there will be all sorts of people there. Everyone, from every nation, all worshiping together. I even met a few agnostics and atheists. That was weird because I would never expect someone like that to be in a church. Their response, in a nutshell, was "this is different than what I expected". WOW! A church engaging non-believers and skeptics that actually come to church. You don't find this in churches, but you'll find it at City Life Church.
There are small groups that meet in people's homes and these groups are referred to as Growth Groups, which enables believers and nonbelievers to engage with one another. This is where connection and discipleship happens.
From the moment I enter in, I feel welcomed. I'm greeted by a warm and friendly group of people. Sometimes, people can walk into a new place and feel completely isolated, but man, you walk in City Life and feel right at home. And the worship at the very start of service is amazing. The music sounds really good, and you're just able to go right before God. Love it, love...
Read moreToday was my 3rd visit to City Life Church. I am new in pursuing a relationship with God. I was raised in the church but never practiced. I belong to a very traditional Lutheran Church and I have an extremely hard time getting into the messages unless something really resonates with me. My first visit to City Life was life changing. First off, the atmosphere is so welcoming and there is so much diversity, it just feels like home. The pastor was not preaching that day but the gentleman who gave the message spoke about Leah and I truly resonated with that. After the service I went to the front and weeped to one of the women and she prayed over me. My life has never been the same since I left that day. I still struggle with my relationship with God but I actually understand the Bible now. God is working through me because of City Life church. I highly recommend this church. I get excited after every service for the next week. Honestly, the messages are so good now — I can’t wait to see how the actual pastor is. I plan to become a member in due time. Thank...
Read moreIt is easy to look around in our world today and feel like we are more divided than ever before. It can even feel hopeless at times. That is not the case at City Life Church.
The name City Life couldn't describe them better. The moment you walk in you can tangibly sense the life in this church. That life comes from the obvious focus and mission of this church being to honor God.
You are also struck by the incredible diversity present. Everywhere you look you see people who come from different ethnic, socio-economic, and cultural backgrounds that are simultaneously celebrating their differences and striving and experiencing unity together. If you are looking for a church do yourself a favor and come visit City...
