We went here to check out the kids play area and it was really nice! My daughter had a lot of fun. It was also nice that the big kids were mindful of the little kids and were safe around them.

Not a concert, it's huge, and a bit intimidating at first, but really genuine. The worship service is full of people who are passionate and focused. I'm only visiting this church while I'm in town, but wow, it makes me want to move states just to be here. The church has a lot of other things, such as a gym, so it's amazing.

Very kind community. I actually don’t go to church here but my kids love the indoor play place that they provide for the community. It’s also very affordable to join their gym! Thanks for the generosity!

I was involved in the college and adult groups at the church. The majority of the college group was not very serious about their faith. The girls would rather go to a Brentwood service to "find rich husbands" than travel to Franklin to a …
