WA Feels Like How Church SHOULD Feel
Fortunately, I attend a really warm and welcoming Christian church in Pea Ridge, Arkansas. But not all churches in America are great, not even good by biblical standards. Many non-Christians are turned off by Christianity because of the very people who profess to practice its faith. From the little that I've seen here at WA, I believe if this were a church there would be a Christian revival in the land!
As soon as I joined the WA community I was welcomed with opened arms. My success has been your success. Encouragement and gentle feedback has been the norm. The supportive atmosphere inspires me to support others, even though I'm a newbie and don't have all the answers. WA's focus is building wealth and community, but we do so to take care of our friends and families, and to achieve greater freedom to pursue other life affirming activities. I don't believe we are motivated to amass wealth just for its own sake. That wouldn't be very biblical.
I am not sure of the religious makeup of the WA community, but it probably reflects the population at large. My walk with God is relatively new (and has resembled something like a roller coaster ride) but my faith in Jesus is the only thing getting me through life's struggles. WA has given me an opportunity to channel my strengths and learn valuable new skills (and in the process increase in confidence). I just wanted to let WA know, both believers and non-believers, how special this place is. Thanks for all of the support so far.

Exactly! Of course there are great churches out there but they can sure learn a thing or two from the WA community. Thanks for the response!
I am not religious or a church goer. However if church were like WA.... well I a sure I would love it there.
When I think about how a church should feel, I imagine a place where everyone can feel comfortable and be part of a community. For me, an important element of this is thoughtful church directional signs https://bsign-store.com/collections/church-directional-signs — both inside and out. They help with orientation, create a cozy atmosphere, and even inspire. Such details not only organize the space, but also make the church more accessible to new parishioners, turning it into a truly welcoming place.
