Believer's Tabernacle is a contemporary-based church that focuses on connecting people personally with God. The pastor brings scripture alive and makes it very relevant for the issues we face every day in modern America. I will walk through a typical Sunday at Believer's Tabernacle. They start service with worship songs that are mainly contemporary but also include great songs of old. The worship time fosters a personal encounter with God. So, the length of worship varies as they allow the spirit to lead. The worship time puts God front and center and allows me to focus and worship God as everything else fades into the background. Next comes prayer for giving and a time of greeting. What makes Believer's tabernacle different in this respect is that they don't pass a collection plate to gather offerings like many churches. Instead, they have four giving boxes at the back of the sanctuary that people can drop in tithes/offerings/prayer requests at any time. Giving can be done completely anonymously and without pressure. Next comes the sermon. Scripture is front and center of every sermon. The pastor uses many scripture passages and does an incredibly good job of bringing scripture to life with context and history. He is an amazing teacher that illustrates the context and history of passages and then relates them to my life today. He weaves old and new testament passages together in ways that make understanding the passages clear and relevant. Sermons always point to God and how we can get closer to God, and then exhort us to share the good news in our everyday lives. The service concludes with prayer and provides an opportunity to pray directly with leaders/elders of the church (if desired). God's love is emphasized very much, and the church provides a wonderful environment for worship and prayer. Whether you are firm in your beliefs, struggling with life/addictions or don't know Jesus at all, you will find a place at this church.
