Hi Ladies-

Thanks in advance!

First Baptist Church of Atlanta...Dr. Charles Stanley is the pastor. He teaches from the bible, and from what I can tell, he teaches sound doctrine. :yep:

It's in Gwinnett County, I believe.

PinkPebbles · Aug 26, 2007

Thank you!

Bumping for more responses....

First Baptist Church of Atlanta is my recommendation. :yep:

It is located in DeKalb County. From 285, get off at the Peachtree Road exit and follow the traffic crowd. The church is on the left. Sunday services are at 9AM and 10:45AM.

Destiny Metro is my mom's church.

We go to Victory World Church in Norcross (Gwinnett). Sound teaching without apology.

I also like pastor Charles Stanley's church First Baptist Atlanta. His son's church (Andy Stanley) has sound teaching as well. He's located in Alpharetta.

ETA: There are more suggestions in this thread:

It's mine as well.

What kind of churches have you all listed? By that I mean, denomination. I saw one Methodist. Are all the other ones Non-denomination?

That's great! I edited my comment. We're on the other side of town and go to Victory World Church, but sometimes I visit Destiny.

I know Victory (www.victorywc.org) and Destiny (the link's located above) are non-denominational, many of the others listed were Baptist/Missionary Baptist/Southern Baptist.

First Baptist Church of Atlanta...Dr Charles Stanley (Southern Baptist)
and
Free Chapel in Gainesville Ga...Jentezen Franklin...(nondenom) freechapel.org

you will definitely be fed with the word at these two

foxxymami · Jan 24, 2008

BUMP!

I need a church home, I feel so lost here :crybaby:

. Been in ATL for a month now and there are so many churches that I don't know what to do. I guess I'll go visit them all one by one..?

My church back home is called Blank Blank Christan Center and it's non-denominational. So maybe I'll try some ND churches first...

Foxxymami-

Thanks PP, I went to the websites of many of the churches suggested here and they all looking very welcoming. I know that I'll just have to get out there and start looking for the one that nurtures my spirit and where I feel the most "at home". Good for you, for finding a church you are happy with :drunk:

fuchsiastar · Jan 24, 2008

Wonderful that you have found a church home in Atlanta! I missed this the first time around, and it has been a blessing to me because I'm currently in a search for finding a worship center where my SO may be more comfortable. We are visiting next Sunday, thanks to the recommendations from this topic :yep:

bump

I have been going to Victory World for months now (since my last post last Aug). My husband has been complaining about the size, and how it has been difficult for us to make individual connections. The sermons are on point and the kids' activities are constant so that kept us going....but it does not feel like "home". So I am on the search again.
