Praise Assembly of God

I cant fathom how this church has 4.8 stars besides deleting negative reviews & the fact that brainwashed people will always support a charismatic leader unconditionally. I dont know if its a cult per se, but it is a complete narcissist on a stage who loves to hear himself talk but says absolutely nothing of substance in terms of a biblical message. Ask me what the sermon was about - I have no earthly idea. But there were plenty of red flags for Christians who are looking for a loving, accepting, Jesus-focused church. I was so shocked by the things I heard that I had to write them down so I wouldnt forget them. Here are a few highlights to give you a flavor of what you can expect from this pastor: When youre listening to a sermon, the most important thing is to listen to the pastor. And then secondly, listen to God. God wants his women to be soothing, not savage & storming. God wants you to be benign & pure, not brash & poisonous. And you can be poisonous really easily & you become poisonous by being around people who poison you. But God gave women a natural ability to be loving & nurturing & pure, and thats what he wants from you. *screams a random sentence & then says* man thats good preaching. You ever just want to hit your kid with a belt? Even if theyre generally a good kid bc youre like cmon you know better than that. Thats how God feels about us. He then had the congregation repeat the words destroy and demolish as he was reading a verse from Numbers. And I couldnt even write down exact quotes when it came to his thoughts on the LGBTQ+ community, alcohol, and birth control because I was so shocked by what I was hearing & my jaw was on the ground. I am incredibly concerned by the number of people in the congregation who are drinking this mans kool aid. I feel like Im being punked.

A lot of theatrics without a solid message. Made some negative remarks about other religions, and the LGTQ community leading me to believe that love and welcoming of others is not a main priority here. Id want to hear more about a good message from the Bible rather than the short fallings of anyone else. The message that I did hear was very surface level, and I couldnt figure out what I was meant to take away from it. Walked out very disappointed.
