City Life Church — Attraction in Philadelphia

I've gone twice now, more than enough times to tell what kind of church this is - the best kind! Pastor Brad always delivers an engaging, fun, and fantastic service and the church band is enlightening, energetic, and fun! This is just what is needed for a modern day church - it is alive! It's not dry or boring at all! It is a fresh, friendly, warm, and welcoming environment with such wonderful people too! For years I was told about this church but thought I'd be better off working on my own self-discovery of God. At some point, you run into a wall and you need a church just like this to help lift you over - this is that kind of church! My only regret is that I didn't start attending sooner. Trust me, this will become the cornerstone of your Sundays, it already has for me!

This is a no obligations, non-forceful church, one that makes you feel at home, welcomed, and each and every service is powerful, filled with the Word of God, His Gospel, and absolutely wonderful advice. You don't need to be a Christian to attend, there is no affiliation - we are one, no division - we are diverse, and no pressure at all. Whether you are seeking God and beginning a Christian life, working on a better relationship with God in your life as a Christian, or studying His Gospel a great deal, this church is for you!

Parking and seats are plenty, there is free coffee and water, and there is a wonderful child center to drop the kids off inside, so there is absolutely no reason...

I am deeply saddened to share my experience as a former member of this church. During a difficult time in my life, I sought support and community here, but instead I was met with hurt. One Sunday, in the middle of service, the pastor sent a gentleman to tell me that my autistic son was a “distraction” to his audience. My child could not attend the children’s group because of his autism, and we were doing our best to participate respectfully. When I reached out to this church for help during a hard season, it was nearly impossible to get any meaningful assistance or follow-up. In contrast, a local Catholic church not only offered immediate help, but also checked in to ensure my family was doing well. Sadly, I have noticed that some churches focus more on appearances and drawing people in rather than truly living out the love and compassion of Christ. Thankfully, I have since found another church that welcomed my autistic son with open arms and patiently helped him work through his anxiety until he felt comfortable. It breaks my heart to say that I will not be returning. How can you preach the word of God but fail to live by it? True ministry is shown in actions, not...

The music, the diversity of people, the set up . To to the message was beautiful. I’ve been to a lot of churches . The one thing that I was looking for was a message based on bible . I got that here . It was my first time yesterday going to a new church and I was super nervous but the environment says come on in . If I wasn’t so shy I probably would have mingled in the hall with the others . I even wrote notes after the service to make sure I remembered what I should be practicing this week from the service . To sit at the table with Jesus. For he will make a table in the presence of my enemies. I’ll be going to south west mostly because I work on Sunday’s but my spirit was fed that day. I haven’t felt that full in...
