First Baptist Church - Sevierville — Attraction in Sevierville

Been going for 8 weeks and sermons have been ok but started to not like the gospel message. To be saved you need to repent of your sins and make Jesus Lord of your life....Ok but repent means to change your mind...period. Change your mind about what is the question.

I’m sharing this experience not out of spite, but in hopes that this church will educate its staff and volunteers about federal disability laws and the spirit of grace they’re meant to embody. No one should be turned away from worship because of a...

I am new to the area and was looking for a church family to become a part of. I begin to watch online and TV sermons to help lead me in the direction to go. On a Sunday I watched a sermon that I related to, the pastors experience with depression which I have been dealing with. Being unable to attend services due to my schedule at a new job I reached out to the church to ask about possible counseling or other times I may somehow become involved with the church family. I was transferred to Mr. Clarks voice mail, this was weeks ago and no one ever reached back out to me. If you are experiencing signs of depression and hopelessness there are churches near you that are willing to help, God will provide you...
