"I’ve always been in church but I fell off, I got bored and lazy to the point to where I questioned if God was real. This happened for about 2 years. Then January 8th, I know I experienced God. I was crying and felt His presence. Ever since then I’ve been trying my best to go after Him.”

"A “taking over” by God.
He has given me reassurance that what I’ve been doing is constructive & productive. He has rescheduled my activities to include more study, more prayer, more service. He has balanced out my finances so my hobbies don’t overshadow my giving. He has taken over & I am good with it all.
It’s like knowing you will breathe: you don’t plan it, don’t think about it, you just do it. This is my life now. PLUS, my joy has increased, my peace & contentment have increased. He loves me & He doesn’t want me to settle."

"Stepping out of my comfort zone was always hard for me. I needed boldness and confidence to step out and do what I was being called and told to do. I am now walking in boldness. Unaffected by the worries of what others may think. Pastor David’s obedience to what the Holy Spirit was telling him to tell me pulled me into the place I was suppose to be at in my walk! This church is truly a place where you can be set free and encouraged if you will allow it to be that. If you come in expecting and open for what God wants to do in you then the very need you came in with can be met! This is a place of freedom and a place of restoration! I was bound by fear, worry, and doubt but now I am free from it all!”

“When my wife and I decided to bring our family to CA back in March 2021, we didn’t really know what to expect. We were used to the Baptist way of doing things. Quiet, routine based, sit-down worship (Heavenly Highway Hymns y’all), out of service by 12, can I get an Amen?
Anyways, as soon as we came in the side door, worship was already going. I immediately felt the presence of the Holy Spirit. There was NO doubt in my mind that we were walking into a church on fire for seeking God.
We can’t even express the exponential spiritual growth that our family has experienced in the past 2 and 1/2 years. Our children have been saved and baptized under that roof. The investment that is being poured into our kids is unlike anything we’ve ever seen!
I have attended several different churches over the years. We’re doing it right at CA y’all. The atmosphere that Pastor David and Pastor Kim have created is one that is pleasing to the Father. Anyone that can come to service and leave there empty-handed did not truly buy-in and did not truly want an encounter with God. I love this church. I love all of you. I love doing life with my church family. We’re making God smile. I know it.”

"God brought us at just the right time for us. I had heard sermons and been in church for years with a hard heart full of anger, bitterness and hurt. Nothing affected me. I had no feelings or emotions. I did not care if I or anyone else lived or died. The very first service we attended Pastor David was on part three of his 'Heart Health' series. That day God chipped away a small piece of the massive wall I built around my heart that nothing could penetrate. I couldn't break out and no one could break in. BUT GOD!!! God kept chipping away until there was a crack and praise God one night that wall was completely destroyed. I'm fighting back tears right now. I'm so thankful for the revival God has given my life and my marriage. These are all things He has done since we've been attending CA (about a year now). God has done the impossible in my life and I'm hearing the same about others lives. I know He is preparing us individually to fight and serve collectively. He told me , He has brought me here to prepare me. I know I'm not the only one.

HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD!! I'm able to love for the first time in almost 30 years. Can't wait to be a part of what is coming. Can't wait to serve with this church.

“I have grown up in church, every Sunday and Wednesday - but I didn’t know who God was honestly. I knew religion, I knew the do’s and don’ts but I never knew Jesus. I had experienced His presence as a child, felt His presence, but I never pursued God outside of church and by the time I reached High School, I was lukewarm. I was a “good kid” but I did not have a relationship with God. I struggled with anxiety, fear of what other people thought of me, insecurity. I lived in bondage. I came to church one Sunday morning, not expecting anything to happen, but God had other plans.
That day God met me!! I was overcome by His presence and I walked away never the same, God encountered me and changed me. He freed me!!! I rededicated my life to him and experienced a freedom and a fire for God like never before, I’m not the same girl I used to be a year ago.
BECAUSE of God- I have freedom and can worship. I used to be so bound by the fear of man that I would be too scared to even raise my hand in church- Now I praise God freely and radically, because of who He is and what He has done for me, I no longer live with the fear of what others might think, I no longer am bound!! I never thought I would have the boldness and the freedom I do now. God has done so much ever since this day. About a month after this moment I was baptized in the Holy Spirit. Now I’m living fully set on fire for HIM, with a heart to see other people saved and set free like I was.
I am HIS witness wherever I go, and I have gotten to see many of my friends and family changed and awakened to the real and living God - because of my pursuit and freedom!!! All Praise to God!!!”
