West End Community Church

Wonderful church for families. The kids’ Transformation Station is so good it should be syndicated. Carter Crenshaw’s sermon style is engaging, direct and conversational. The sermons tackle the tough issues most people won’t discuss but should. I especially like the «IF» sermons — Investigative Forum. It’s like no other! Carter sits on a stool and fields questions from the audience as the sermon — so you can ask him anything! Nowhere else have I seen this but it is an open and honest dialog where even the toughest of questions get asked in front of the entire audience and Carter talks through the answers biblically — incredible openness! Regardless of where you go to church — or don’t go to church for that matter — if you have questions you absolutely will want to come to his service. And as a guy, I agree with a previous post, if you want your husband or boyfriend to actually want to go to church then bring him here, I promise you he won’t fall asleep! There’s a men’s group that does high adventure activities like climbing Mt. Rainier and Grand Teton, crossing the Grand Canyon, and works with heroine addicts in Ireland. There are lots of women’s groups as well that do incredible outreach but obviously I’m not that one to post on those. I’d definitely recommend visiting on Sunday.

I have attend West End Community Church from time to time. I have been greeted at the door by the senior pastor and really made to feel welcome. More importantly Pastor Carter’s sermons give me a deep insight into the truths of the Bible and how God views me. His messages are so clear, relevant and easy to understand even if you did not grow up in a church.
The people are very friendly and casual. Not a dress up and show off church.
I definitely will go back.

This is not a church to attend. I was there awhile back and there were all kinds of evil things going on. Mr. Patrick Elrod was abusive to me verbally, and a pastor told me I didn’t belong there because I was struggling with unemployment. Why people go to these kinds of upper-​middle class churches I have no idea. They should have apologized to me long ago but they couldn’t be bothered. Spare yourself pain — Carter Crenshaw even said to me that I wasn’t married because I was so OLD (at 43) that no one would want me. Completely unnecessary comment! And church is not just «for young families» — there are others of us out there.

Pastor Carter Crenshaw is hilarious, there are things he says that will definitely stick with you for life. I like his speaking style, and I would say it’s more appealing to men, if you are interested in getting your man to attend church, and convince him to dvr the football game
There is a baptism every single week, so obviously a popular place for young families. you will quickly notice his spirited speaking style during the baptism, it’s a hoot.
