Just over eight years ago, we made the life-changing decision to move from Minnesota in search of something deeper for our family . . . Not just a place to attend once a week, but a true, God-centered community where faith is lived out every single day. We longed to surround our children with other families whose lives were rooted in God and His Son, Jesus Christ, not simply as a weekly routine, but as a 24/7 way of life. Looking back, we could not be more at peace with that decision. Watching our children grow into responsible, joyful, peaceful, and focused adults, and now with a couple of them marrying spouses who share those same Christ-centered values and passions, has been one of the greatest blessings a parent could ever hope for! This lifestyle certainly is not for everyone, and that is part of what makes it so meaningful. It requires a wholehearted, biblically-grounded commitment, thus a daily desire to lay down sin, pursue spiritual growth, and continually strive to become a better spouse, parent, child, sibling, and friend through the example of Jesus Christ. It is not about perfection; it is about a sincere willingness to be shaped, challenged, and refined through scripture and through community. For those who are longing for a place where you can truly grow alongside like-minded brothers and sisters in faith, build unbreakable bonds through both the mountains and valleys of life, laugh until your sides hurt, enjoy the occasional dance party, celebrate God’s appointed feasts and festivals, and lovingly hold one another accountable through the lens of scripture, this may very well be the place you’ve been searching for. For our family, it has become far more than a church . . . It has become home.

It’s hard to put into words what this church truly means to me, because it’s become so much more than just a place I attend—it’s home. From the very beginning, I was welcomed like family, and over time that feeling has only grown stronger. Through every season of life, this church has been a place of comfort, strength, encouragement and growth. The people here genuinely care, show up for one another, and love in a way that feels real and lasting. I’ve grown incredibly in my faith, found peace in difficult moments, and discovered a deeper sense of purpose because of this community. This isn’t just a church to me—it’s a family that I’m incredibly grateful for. Being part of it has truly changed my life for the better, and I thank God for leading me here.

Absolutely give this place a try if you’re in the area!!! I’ve been a member for 8 years now and have nothing but the best things to say about the leadership and the people of this place!! Thru Remnant I’ve been able to lay down all sorts of greed and selfishness and have found a very personal relationship with God and his son Jesus Christ and my life has never been more full of joy and purpose! Everything taught here is based off of scriptures from the Bible and has continuously encouraged me live a better life every single day! Every member here truly feels like family and always encouraging to talk to! Come check it out!!

I read the comments and have alo spoken to others about this church and feel that in order for a person to be a member at this church they must act a certain way, look a certain way, and have a financial situation in the top 10% range. I never read one passage in the bible that said a thing about any of those things being needed to get into heaven. I have seen folks say in other reviews they have gone here 20+ years and to them I would say it would be a shame if when God comes and your expecting to be joined with others going to heaven but are left behind because you never learned a thing. You may have looked real nice,had wealth and showed it off every Sunday (which by the way is not the sabbath day) but you were a horrible person, cruel to others and never knew Jesus. For the young person in the reviews yo say she never knew about Jesus and was a member for 20 years until 2 months before leaving tells me that you all are meeting mostly to show who has more and prove your family is better then the next and for leaders of your church to have their hands out wanting your offerings that week. I do not have the greatest relationship with God but I know for a fact that 95% of the churches out there misinterpret the Bible wrong, spread those wrong things around and invoke the name of God whenever and however they feel the need. Now I would be interested to know if the majority of your congregation voted for Trump or not and I ask that because a human being could have voted for that man and claim to know God. I would love to find a church who didn't get up there and repeat the same things all churches teach but one that allows people to come together and give opinions of what things could really mean. I would also like to discuss the hundreds of books of the Bible left out the Bible, why they were left out and locked in the archives for years out of public reach. I would also love to see how the Bible was written in Hebrew and when switched to English what was left out or changed I'm guessing a lot. I feel the Bible we all know today was written a lot by government as a way to make us conform to things they need us to. I have questions that not one single church has answers to like why does God teach in our Bible to love one another forgive one another, feed one another but when lucifer disobeyed he didn't do not one of those thing just cast him to hell along with others for disobeying. That sounds nothing like the God we have been taught about. It is a commandment not to kill yet God killed many by flooding earth. If it's said that Jesus died for our sins then why can we still sin and why do woman still bleed monthly and have pains during child birth. The Bible we have contradicts itsself many times which leads me to believe somebody got his words wrong in translation or like I said the governmnet needed a way to control us because Christianity has not been around but a couple thousand years.

Was apart of this church since I was 13, with a short break in adolescent - total membership time was about 20 years. The pastor has no formal theology training and rarely attends services. Members are expected to "back up this church and Elizabeth Kaufman 100% without question." When I asked questions... I was kicked out. Not only was I kicked out, they kicked out my husband and 4 small children by association. Leadership lied to me and about me. They are great at community, so beware of getting entangled.

I started coming to this church as a young teen during a time when I felt lost and pulled in a lot of different directions. My family had visited many churches over the years, but this was the first place where something truly felt real to me. What stood out most was the focus on building a genuine, personal relationship with God and actually being shown what that looks like in everyday life. I’ve seen the leaders live out what they teach, and that kind of authenticity has meant so much to me. Being part of this church has completely changed the direction of my life. It’s helped me build a real relationship with God that I never understood before, and that has brought me a sense of peace, purpose, and joy that I previously never experienced. The people here are welcoming, kind, and truly care about each other. I’ve built genuine friendships and found a community that feels like home. If you’re in the area It’s definitely worth checking out!

Church leaders said I was cursed when I was diagnosed with cancer at 19. I was a member here for 18 years of my life and never knew who Jesus truly was until 3 months after I left. Hope that tells you what kind of “Church” this is. If I had gotten my diagnosis while still in remnant I would have never believed in my healing or felt true peace through Christ. Incredibly grateful for the day I left!

I have grown up in this church and I am truly changed for the better every single day!! It is a place of love, zero judgment and people who are all working for the same goal of pleasing God and living like his son Jesus Christ!!

This beautiful church is the absolute definition of love and grace and mercy! As a member for over 20+ years I am so grateful for all that I have learned from here! I Praise God for His this place. I pray that everyone actually do their research as others have suggested. Come, visit and learn from those whose lives have been forever changed. In my experience.. I would never have been able to thrive as I have in the last few decades.. love has let me heal.. Elizabeth has been amazing and she is ever faithful.. ever dedicated.. ever pure and ever humble! Every interaction I have had with her, has made me come away more humble.. more grateful and more thankful for a living God that is full of love, mercy and is ever steadfast and will show us how to get to heaven.

I’ve been a member for over 20 years and have been changed for the better as a result! This is where I learned how to have a genuine relationship with God and how to put the Bible into daily practice in all areas of my life. The results have been incredible! My happy marriage, close relationship with my teenage kids, daily purpose and answered prayers are all a direct by product. I just can’t say enough good things about the solid teachings, loving guidance from all the leaders, and beautiful community. I am so grateful for finding this wonderful church!
