The Bend

When to go

  Can someone explain to me why you guys can't simply ask your congregation to stop taking every parking spot in the plaza? I mean, don't you guys see how disrespectful it is to the other businesses when your people take their parking? I'm sure H&R Block isn't too happy that your people take their few parking spots right when they open on Sundays. It's not too difficult to be considerate and ask your people to stop doing that. I hope the other businesses put up sign that say "Parking for Them Only" so we can start having cars towed. I know you guys have a shuttle so ask your congregation to stop being selfish and park in the back and take the shuttle. It isn't difficult to show others a little love and respect and not be selfish. Your business isn't the only business in the plaza.

  First time here at The Bend Church. I had a great time. I am not used to two hour services, but it flew by. Adam filled in for the main pastor and he was great. Next time I’m visiting I will definitely attend again🙏 …

  I went today for the first time. Right now it’s the closest church to my home. I enjoyed every second of it. The people in the parking lot were so good to me. The people in the church were so helpful and nice. The preacher was awesome And on fire for God! You can tell he has the presence of God within him. Singers were fantastic! I plan on going back! I have to go to a church where I can feel God & know He’s there & not wonder. I haven’t been able to go to church in a while. I’ve had to watch it on TV but it’s not the same as being there. God made a way for me to make it today. I feel so blessed! Thank you, Jesus!

  My wife and I attended for the first time today 03/30/25 and we were welcomed with open arms and everyone went out of the way to make us feel comfortable. The band & the singing were Great, the Preacher Shane Warren was off the charts with how he brought the word. We definitely know we will be back every Sunday.

  The Bend Church isn’t just a church, it’s family who you can do life with. If you are looking for a church who is ALIVE and on FIRE for God, this is the church for you! I don’t live in Cookeville, TN anymore but when I come to visit from South Carolina I don’t like to miss service! Pastor Shane and his wife are both God fearing and loving Pastors.

  Prosperity preaching, tongues without an interpreter, etc I did not feel the Holy Spirit anywhere near this church! RUN

  I truly appreciate the activity of the Holy Spirit in the service. And how the Word fed my soul. The friendliness of all is amazing and how everyone reached out to me. So very blessed. Continue to let God use ya'll.

  Absolute best place to worship the Lord. Pastor Shane makes no apology for the word of God. Truth is taught in love . Pastor Shane is a wonderful pastor. It is the blood bought, the church … the redeemed. Come visit, you won’t be disappointed. Jesus is Lord!
