Greetings, are there any brothers in the Detroit area that can recommended a New Covenant church (yes I know that is double speak but you know what I mean).I did a search for the keyword 'Detroit' and the latest thread that I could find was from 2006 :-).I've been a lurker for the last 8 months or so but thought that I'd introduce myself. My family and I are looking for a church home (without much luck) and in my frustration I thought that I would ask for your help.We're tired of the machine, hyper-prosperity garbage and looking for some like minded believers who believe in:-The Lordship of Jesus Christ and being a mirror of Him-The gifts of the Spirit without flakiness-People who place a higher value on the fruit of the Spirit rather than the gifts of the Spirit.-Freedom from sin-Fellowship and praying-The joy of the Lord and freedom from legalism-BrokennessWe have been churchless for the last 8 months, and I miss the body terribly.Please, take this in the spirit that was written brothers and sisters. :-)In Christ,Earl J-
How about Revival Tabernacle? Here's the church website: http://www.revivaltab.org/staff.php

Hi Earl - I attend Calvary Chapel Oakland County, in Troy, at Long Lake and John R. http://ccoaklandcounty.com/ I've been popping in now and then for years, and recently started attending full time. It is a solid Bible Church, but I haven't really gotten to know the people yet and don't know if the gifts of the Spirit are in evidence. They meet the criteria you listed, as far as I can tell.I have never been to Revival Tabernacle, but if the senior pastor is friends with Dave Wilkerson, he can't be all bad!Oh, and welcome to the forum!
