[quote=Anonymous]I attend McLean Bible and love it.   I was raised Catholic but fell away from religion for a very long time.   I started to reconsider religion a few years ago due to an unusual confluence of circumstances.   MBC was radically different from anything else I had ever attended, but it quickly grew on me.   David Platt and Mike Kelsey are fantastic preachers.   My wife is not religious but has gone on certain occasions with me and has said that Platt is one of the best public speakers she has ever heard, period.   The band is fantastic.   The mood is just generally very happy.   You see it in the door greeters, in the strangers sitting next to you.   And the church has a real community.   I made a lot of friends at MBC over the past few years and previously had very few friends in my personal life.   It’s been amazing to me how much these people have embraced me.   The church is also mulicultural, multi-generational, and has explicitly avoided the Trump idolatry that has infected so many Christian churches.

Perhaps most importantly, for the first time in my life, I actually understand Christianity now and it makes sense to me on an intellectual level.  I never felt that way growing up where the services were boring, ritualistic, and the Bible was never actually explained.  MBC is very big about applying the theology to everyday problems too so most Sundays I walk out with practical advice that can improve my week.   [/quote]
