Does anyone know of any good churches in the Maryville or Farragut area? My sister lives in Farragut and I am looking for a great church to direct her to. I asked JTULLOCK and St Matt some time ago and I have actually forgotten the info that they gave me.

I am looking for something like a church I attend. She has a Baptist background and her hubby was raised Catholic. They want to get involved in church again, but she wants a church more like Love and Truth.

This is BY FAR the best one. They are a good size church. They are packed out every service. This was actually a daughter work from my home church in Knoxville. Tamor, they are not charasmatic AT ALL. They are more lib than say your traditional UPC church, this church does have a tv program.

I am familiar with First Apostolic. This is a growing family oriented church that seems balanced enough. It could still be culture shock for Baptist folks though.

Well said. I have been very close to people in that church for years. I have dated a few ladies from their in the past and also have had best friends from there too. If I were to move there and my original home church was not there, in Knoxville, I would go to FAC of Maryville. The pastor is a GREAT man of God. I do not question his motives or methods. Bro K Carpenter is a great human being and a class act. The truth is that our familes go back a ways I used to have a crush on his daughter..LOL. She married a great man, Chad. That is definately a rocking church. Tamor if you got to CC1, thread about the Youtubish Apostolic site their choir is on there.

Chad who? Send me via pm, if you don't want to post it publicly. The reason I ask is because I knew a Chad that married a girl from a church in TN. Just wondering if it's the same person.

After checking out the website, I was going to make a comment along these lines. I think it would still be culture shock for them. And no, she's not Bapticostal! She always loved going to church with me - Love and Truth Church, but I'm afraid this one might still be leaning too far toward the Pentecostalism that they do not know.

I, on the other hand would probably love it!!
