Answers › Belonging

How do I find a church near me?

In short

You can find a real church near you on The Living Bread's church directory, which maps churches by city and state. Look for one that teaches the Bible, points to Jesus, and welcomes you, then simply show up; you belong there.

Finding a church can feel daunting, but you do not have to walk in alone. Search your city to see the churches near you, choose one that honors Jesus and the Scriptures, and go. Most people feel nervous the first time; that is normal, and you are wanted.

The church is not a building or a performance; it is a family, and there is a place in it for you.

What Scripture says

“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”

Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)

“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”

Matthew 18:20 (KJV)

Where to go from here

Still wondering? Ask Simon, a companion who points to Jesus, or bring it to God in prayer.
