Finding a Church where I feel accepted and welcome has been difficult since I moved to NC.
I would love to know if there is any form of cultural diversity here so I don't have to seat by myself and not have any friends like I had to in the last Church I left.
It's been weeks of YouTube channel worship and I miss church.
I'm glad we found this church. It's like a big family and very welcoming. Everyone is always willing to go out of their way to include you and engage with you. I read an old review saying that children are in the worship service and were distracting, well this isn't entirely true anymore. Older kids now have their own worship service and the younger babies go back to their rooms after worship is over. Pastor Matt is a genuine and kind man. He is very knowledgeable of the Word and is a very good leader. This church believes in spiritual gifts and allowing people to use them to worship and to serve others. If you are looking for a home to be plugged into this is the place to go. You can come here to worship, learn, grow, be loved, and to serve others, and it's amazing.
Awake Church changed my life 10 years ago when it was still Morning Star. They opened my eyes to who God really is and the relationship He desires with each of us individually. For that, I will be eternally grateful. It forever changed the course of my life, and I'm thankful that the leadership at Awake allows God to work through them. The home groups are great as well. Once again, I felt my relationship with God deepen after a bible study I participated in through Awake. About 3 years ago, I felt called in a different direction and left, but this is a great spirit-filled church that loves the Lord.
Edit to include: The music at Awake is like no other. The worship team here is absolutely phenomenal. I still listen to several albums that I received while attending Awake and even downloaded a recent album that was released.
