Trying to find my spiritual home in charlotte, nc?

Question

I am looking for a good Church in Charlotte, NC. Here are somethings I look for in a church, and if you know of a place like that, please advise. Looking for openminded, devoted Christians who are accepting of people in all walks of life. Christians who don't mind getting dirty to meet people where they are. Somewhere that offers bible study and is biblically accurate. Not looking for places that outwardly state women are not supposed to be in authority roles. Accepting of homosexuals and with a large population of young, single fearless people of the Lord. I know, I know, it's a long shot. Oh, and if you don't like what I am looking for in a church, please don't comment. (because i don't care.) Serious responses only.

Answer 1

Greetings,

My family and I are members at Hickory Grove Baptist Church in Charlotte, NC. HGBC has two campuses : main campus is at the corner of Harris Blvd and Hickory Grove Road and the north campus is behind Concord Mills mall on Odell School Road. The website is www.hgbc.org. Check us out.

As a church, we believe the Bible is God's word and is inerrant, infallible and is God's expressed revealing of himself to mankind.

We believe the gospel of Jesus Christ as written in the Bible and we believe that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone.

We welcome people regardless of socioeconomic, racial, sexual orientation, or any other status.

Although my wife and I are in the Married classes, I know there is a thriving singles ministry at both campuses with lots of fun group activities and meaningful small group Bible study and discipleship opportunities.

The pastors and teachers preach only the word of God and they do not go beyond what is written as stated in 1 Corinthians 4:6.

We are all sinners saved by grace fully trusting in the power of Jesus Christ to continually draw us closer to Himself through prayer, Bible study, worship, fellowship, and service.
The Holy Spirit of God is active in this church body so if you are seeking a body of believers to worship God in spirit and in truth then you should come check us out.

Satisfied in Christ,

Brian

Answer 2

What you describe sounds like the Unitarian Universalists or perhaps the Anglican-Episcopals.

However you said that you are looking for a Church that is biblically accurate and teaches truth and this Church can only be th Catholic Church. It is the Church that the Bible promises will be the "Bulwark and ground of the truth".

In Christ

BTW- homosexuals are welcome to attend and women are in positions of authority.
