Alamo Ranch Community Church — Attraction in San Antonio

It is hard to tell it is a church, you have to go to the BACK of a hotel to go in. I've heard of churches meeting in various types of facilities before they have a building, but this seems weird to me. Apparently their offices are in the hotel too? Seems kinda shady to me that they can't do a regular office. Some random room is the office? Do they share it? How does that work? Anyway, I've visited quite a few times and have not felt that welcome. I've noticed that the staff is all white, that the congregation is almost all white, and the area is far from all white. Interesting. No diversity at all. Seems to be all-male leadership, aren't women people too? Also, there are a number of people up front and in the audience who hold their right hand outstretched, angled upward with palms down. I asked and they claimed it was "part of worship," but seemed to me to be a very distinct white power hand symbol. I looked into talking with the leaders, but they did not seem available and their policies were really weird also. I'm surprised that they have survived so long, but there are always people who will go try it and find their community. I couldn't be part of this one and wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.

It was a true shame no one even welcomed us and seemed like they were just too dead in...

Ive experienced the love of Christ lived out through the people here. There’s always someone there willing to listen, help and pray for you. Most importantly, there is Christ-centered preaching every Sunday.. no scriptural/spiritual gymnastics around tough verses that other Churches avoid because they are socially uncomfortable. Most sermons are a part of a series that are preached...
