Grace Community Church: Lakewood Ranch Campus (LWRC)

Sabina Hart

This is not an ordinary church. The sermons are very thought provoking, educational, inspirational, and moving all at once. I always leave with a greater understanding of myself, life and purpose, many times fighting tears (good, life-changing, grounding tears). Pastor Chip is an abundant wealth of knowledge and he poses all the hard questions and dissects, deconstructs and reconstructs topics with such careful detail. There's a lot of passion, positive energy and enlightenment at Grace Community Church.

No politics. All about loving people and loving the Lord. Sermons are spoken straight from the Bible and there isn’t a lot of personal experience they share, which I like. If you are looking for a church that accepts everyone and a pastor that teaches straight from the Bible, this one should be your go to.

Our favorite pastor in Sarasota. Friendly fir a big church. Great worship and soul searching sermons that open the Bible.

This is our 3rd visit. Easter Sunday was a great service. Each time we have gone attendance is strong and church has a lot of volunteers to help operation run well and make visitors feel important. It is a vibrant church and if you are new, you control level of engagement. If you want to be able to come and go without much interaction you can. When you are ready to engage the staff and volunteers will be there. They do not force the issue so it is a comfortable and non threatening place for guests.
