I just moved to Columbus — how do I choose a church?

Start by visiting two or three churches near you. Listen for clear, Bible-based preaching, notice whether you're welcomed warmly, check that the service times fit your family, and look for solid ministries for your kids. Visiting in person tells you far more than a website can.

Do I need to bring anything to church?

No. You don't need to bring anything but yourself. Many churches in Columbus provide a Bible to follow along, or you can read it on your phone. There's no cost to attend.

Will I be pressured to give money?

No. While churches receive a voluntary offering, visitors are never expected to give. Feel free to let the plate pass — no one is watching, and you're welcome whether or not you contribute.

What is Sunday school?

Sunday school is a Bible study time — often by age group — usually held before the main worship service. It's a relaxed way to learn the Bible and meet people, and visitors are welcome to join or skip it.

Can I bring my family, including unsaved friends?

Please do. Churches in Columbus love when people bring family and friends. There's no expectation that anyone already believes — services are a great place for anyone to hear the gospel and see what a church family is like.

What's the difference between a denomination and a non-denominational church?

A denominational church (like Southern Baptist) is part of a wider association of churches; a non-denominational church is independent. Both can be Bible-believing — in Columbus you'll find faithful churches of each kind.
