Describing this church in a few paragraphs is more difficult than you can imagine. You realize how much the word of God is infused into the very fabric of the church the longer you go there. It is a gospel minded church like no other. Joining this church is like joining a family. The amount of love and care you receive from their amazing staff of volunteers can be overwhelming at first because of how genuinely they really care. I have seen more baptisms here and witnessed more people commit their lives to Jesus than I could have fathomed only a few years ago. This church goes above and beyond when it comes to their youth programs. They have a true focus on nurturing the faith of children and teens that shows you how much they love God and want to see future generations come to Christ. I have watched their youth program grow over the years and seen kids grow in Christ with such passion that it inspires me to grow in my faith. Pastor Travis Johnson preaches the gospel with a focus on 21st Century application for our everyday lives. He takes the word and breaks it down into bite size pieces that we can apply to alter our lives in a way that helps us to keep ourselves Christ minded. Using plain words, a splash of humor, and a bit of grit; he prepares us to walk in Christ’s footsteps and not falter to the temptations of the culture we live in. Another aspect of this church that helps to set it apart are the life groups. Every spring and fall the church leaders and volunteers set up small groups with different focuses to meet on different days throughout the week depending on the group. There are men’s groups, women’s groups, fitness groups, parent groups, marriage counseling groups, and a variety of others available. They last 12 weeks and allow for members to get to know one another on a deeper personal and spiritual level. If there is anything I could say to those looking at this review and wondering if they should give lpc a look. Come in, say hi, and stay for a service. You’ll be glad you did.
