Great church. They also have a cafeteria with great food. Come to service then go grab something to eat I’m sure they won’t disappoint.

One of the loveliest Church's in our city, the banquet hall is at this Sunset location and the menu is always great and not to pricey....

I've been a member of the Brookland Baptist Church for over two years and now I'm currently looking for another church. As God has increased my understanding and allowed me to grow spiritually, I feel compelled to give an honest review. I'm not reviewing as an outsider with a vendetta against a mega church, but as a member who has reasonably come to the conclusion that there is something wrong in this church. 

Scroll down and look at some of the other reviews. Most of them will praise things like the banquet and conference center or the size of the church. These are things that don't really have anything to do with growing people spiritually or advancing The Kingdom of God.  The B&C center is boasted as an example of financial empowerment for the community.  It sounds good to financially empower the community, but what good is it to encourage business at the conference center when your Sunday School and Bible Study classes are bare? Especially when compared to the number of members that attend. They won't go to Sunday School but will pack out the B&C center because it's encouraged from the pulpit. 

The danger of focusing on things that sound good like "financial empowerment" is that it twists the congregations understanding of God into a deity that only exists to provide us material success.   Keep in mind that this is the same God that tells us not to store up treasures on Earth but store them in Heaven. He also informs us that our heart is where our treasure is. (Matthew 6: 19-21) And what happens when we inevitably face the trials of life with an incomplete understanding of who God is? We no longer have faith in Him because we've been taught our purpose is to be "financially empowered" . There's a difference between something being good and something being of God. 

Material success is proudly taught here and  scripture like Psalm 1: 3 is twisted to show how God wants us to prosper materially.  A sermon referencing this scripture was one of many preached to manipulate people into giving money to the youth and teens center they want to build.

The reason I use the the word manipulate is because it has become obvious that there is an ulterior motive in the messages. Selling 50 dollar t-shirts to raise money then requiring people to wear them on select Sundays to show how much they "believe". This might seem innocent if it wasn't  also announced from the pulpit how much money the Deacons had donated and how many had not donated. It was also  required that the Deacons who donated a specific amount to wear special ties to show it. Embarrassing others into doing what you want is basic control and manipulation. 

Please know that our God does not have to control, manipulate or trick anyone into accomplishing His will!  The word tells us that He ensures that His word is fulfilled (Jeremiah 1:12) Again a youth and teen center is GOOD but manipulating people and scripture to get it is not GOD.

The lack of teaching has made the Brookland Baptist Church into little more than a social club where people go to check off that they went to church that week and then , go eat and socialize at the B&C center.  There are good people there, but the church is called to be so much more than a collection of good people. Please read Ephesians 4:11-16. 

 So for anyone who is considering attending Brookland or any church for that matter. Ensure that it is a place that encourages you to mature spiritually and the teaching aligns with the word of God. This will require you to study on your own and develop a relationship with Jesus Christ. Only then will you see the truth. 

If you're only looking for a church to go to just to say you went to church that week, I encourage you to get serious about your walk with Christ.  Time is running out. 

I posted this because it's the truth and it needs to be shown.  It's time our churches shifted from glorifying ourselves and moved to TRULY advancing The Kingdom of God.
