"Pastor Strayer is the real deal his sermons all come from the word. The Church is always reaching out to the lost making sure we reach and spread the word of the love that Jesus has for us so that no one perch. That's our Mission. Come join us and feel true unconditional love and support. You feel Jesus is in the house the moment you step in."

"Love the Church!!! I normally don't write bad reviews, but the Lady in the Cafe is awful to people. I watched her be nasty to the lady in front of me, rolling her eyes & being rude. I asked her about it & she was rude to me too. I asked her for her name & she refused, but the person behind me told me her name is Monica, and she is rude to them too."

"Dangerous false doctrines live here. The pastor thinks church is supposed to be a giant Christian-themed pep rally. They teach their congregants to hide how important tongue-speaking is when they're out in public and then they drop it on you as a major doctrine of their faith. If you deny what they call "praying in the Spirit", aka glossolalia while believing that you're speaking a prayer language, they'll tell you that the devil is influencing you and has tricked you. Bapticostal post-Charismatic, watered-down worldly nonsense. Find a Bible-believing church instead. This church teaches the doctrines perpetuated by John Nelson Darby and C.I. Scofield during the 19th century: dangerous reinterpretations of biblical doctrine that were never accepted by any Christian in the history prior. Many of the doctrines taught here are unique to the past 150 years and attempt to reinvent Christianity into a worldly false idol. This is a spiritually dangerous place to worship as a result of the false doctrines which have crept in. The theology taught here is not your average non-denominational evangelical approach; it's a Frankenstein hybrid of Pentecostalism and Baptist principles which oftentimes are, out in the generalized Christian world, incompatible with one another in their respective churches; the preaching is watered down to the point of feeling more like a pep rally (get ready for the pastor to stop preaching so that he can ask you for applause, nonstop; he might even make you clap louder if he didn't appreciate the volume of your first prayer offering) 1 Corinthians 14:19-22 - Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. When I attended a class at CCWC, we were required to speak in tongues as a big group, something the Bible expressly FORBIDS in 1 Corinthians 14:27-28. The whole group is instructed to start loudly praying in tongues without a translator, and when some aren't doing it, the instructor says, "Who isn't praying in the Spirit? LAY HANDS on whoever isn't praying in the Spirit right now!" This is nonsense and denies the provision that God gave us in the actual gift of tongues, which is for the missions field when we speak languages understood by other people per Acts 2. Ironically, CCWC likes to applaud themselves by titling themselves a "Book of Acts church" If you got saved through this church, don't be anxious. They do understand salvation and that it comes by faith alone through grace. But you'll learn a lot of bad doctrine here after you let your guard down. Room for growth here is severely limited. This is a Christian-themed lifestyle club, four-times-a-week rock concert more than it is a good church. Find a church that gives the office of the pulpit more respect than this place does."
