Ahhh there is so much I could say about Destiny Church but I’ll keep it simple and sweet. I was invited to this church back in July by Pastor Thornton and let’s just say I went with no expectations just wanted to fellowship and hear the word of God. This church is so welcoming & loving they don’t care if you aren’t a member they still welcome you with open arms. I’ve been treated with nothing but kindness and love since my first visit. I am a very shy person but Destiny has me slowly coming out my shell. I attend on Sundays and Wednesdays and I’ve been to a women’s event and it was such a blessing to me. Ever since visiting Destiny I’ve been filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues for the first time. I love the praise and fellowship team but most importantly I love the word of God that is preached by Bishop Johnson, Pastor Karen and Pastor Perry! Thanks to them I am spiritually FIT & I will continue to fight for my life. Destiny has been such a blessing to my family and I. We are a military family and I miss my home church everyday but Destiny sure has filled that void and is my home away from home. I encourage anyone to come out you will not regret it🙏🏾💕

A number of years ago I enjoyed attending as I was away from home and needed to attend church. My niece was stationed there. Very inspiring and uplifting. I still watch here in Conyers, Ga every Sunday. The time zones allow me to watch

It’s okay I really enjoyed the services and everything even got baptized here decided to make this my church and I thought since I have a church now they would help me with this idea of gathering donations for the homeless I cut hair monthly downtown for homeless but I mentioned to pastor Perry about it for the homeless;; winter months are coming and they shut me down quick did not even let me explain “we have organizations for that “ when I go their personally each month i tried again and i got pastor Trisha and she made it seem to help but now i am not hearing anything been 2 weeks she never replied back ;; she put me in the back burner ;; I thought my church will help me out but they did not give me the opportunity to help the homeless so here I am asking other churches and the community tik tok getting the same response nobody wants to help thanks I will find another church I am disappointed I was excited to bring this idea up hoping I can get help from my church for the homeless but I hear crickets ;; god sees you denying the request it’s okay I will go elsewhere

This church has helped grow so much! They put the word in real life examples which makes it easy for me to understand and implement into my daily life. Pastor Trisha helped me and my husband through a rough patch and Pastor Rikki, from day one made me feel so loved and welcomed. I couldn't imagine being anywhere else on Sundays 💜 …

I had a deeply painful experience with Karen Dykes in her dual role as both a pastor and attorney. During a time when I was seeking protection and support, she chose to represent someone I was in the process of seeking protection from. As someone who once looked to her for spiritual guidance, this decision left me feeling betrayed and confused. It was especially hurtful when statements were made that seemed to minimize or question my experience. I understand that attorneys have professional obligations, but I had hoped that someone in spiritual leadership would show more compassion and discernment. This experience made me question how much we can truly trust public figures who hold positions of both spiritual and legal authority. Please approach your decision with awareness. Titles don’t always reflect character or integrity.

Very welcoming choir is great pastors you can feel the passion in their preach 🙏, but I was wondering where does our offerings go do you guys focus on community, and help those in need, it would be nice to hear where our money goes besides the church does it go to the community like addicts or homeless ? It's nice to hear churches helping out their community instead of focusing of other places that need help.. no disrespect or anything but We need help in our community it gets over looked all the time. Homeless vets addicts suffering.. during service be nice to hear what you guys do w the money we give you
