I've been attending Shepherd for almost 3 years now and It truly is a church based on God's word. From the worship, the Pastors and speakers, hospitality, the NUMEROUS ministries they offer Is like no other. It a place to get fed spiritually while feeling the love from God's people. Stop by and see for yourself.

I have college and high school age children, who appreciate the worship, special music and teaching. This church is great place for unchurched families and for families who are seeking to continue to grow in their faith. We have our own family church, but enjoy attending Shepherd, for Christmas, Easter and 4th of July fireworks. The preaching really is solid Biblically, but has strong passion, relevant illustrations, and brings perfect balance of humor... The music is second to none.

You will walk away saying, "wow, what a great God".

If only we could take this place with us everywhere we moved. Dudley is humorous, but bold; and unapologetic about the message while loving with the delivery. Diverse members; large interior; and all around friendly volunteers - I mean who could not be grateful for the tram drivers! God bless you!! A true gift. Great programming, and very responsive staff as well. Monday night men's group is great - from all walks of life.

These guys literally ask for a 10% of your earnings. I never understood why following God involves giving up 10% of one's earnings. I guess they need to pay the bills and pay for the extravagant church! The sermon should be longer and less singing! I do enjoy the topics about death.

Lost a Soul

Lost a Soul
So, I decided to visit Shepherd Church today, to see if this is a potential church I could attend (that is closer to home). The praise and worship was good, the message was also good (Salvation Message for those on milk). During the alter call or call to salvation-being conducted by the Pastor-a young man (early 20's) was excited to be saved. As he was approaching the alter I heard him say something to the extent "I want to go to heaven"-he was clearly new to the church/first time visitor-and I looked at him and saw his excitement to accept salvation. Before I new it one of the security guards did a Push & Grab. Side Bar: why does a man of THE God who is omnipresent, who is our protector and will not allow a hair on his childs head to be harmed need body guards? This baffles me, is it just me? God is my protector. So he pushed him so hard I heard the thump, then grabbed him by his tshirt and "dragged" by pushing him backwards saying (in an aggressive tone)"what are you doing up here, your not supposed to come right now"! (Mind you the other gaurd came from across the room ready to rumble also). How is he to know? I was right in the front row. What if I wasn't saved and I decided to go up to the alter before "time"? It is custom that as the call to salvation is taking place the people approach the alter. Who knew that you have to wait until the words "ready, set, GO!" (sarcasm but you get my drift) are spoken? Would I have been assaulted too? There was a better way to handle the situation being this is the church SOP. The guard could have operated in Agape. My first reaction was dissapointment, then hurt in my heart. I had to hold my tears back. Today the enemy won and we lost a soul, TODAY. I pray that young man does not allow this experience to keep him from salvation.

This is a great church. Been here a few times but the drive is worth it. The campus is open and inviting and the cafe has variety to choose from. Very organized but not overbearing. Great church.

Pastor Dudley's messages are powerful and pierce straight through to my heart. It's as if he knows what I'm going through and as if God is talking directly at me through him. Pastor Dudley doesn't let fear of being politically correct stop him from speaking truth, God's word straight from the Bible. The praise team is the best. It feels like being at a concert every weekend.

It is truly a good place to go alone, with friends, and/or family. You will feel welcomed and accepted no matter where you are at in your spiritual walk. Everyone should visit this church. Its diversity in truly a resemblance of heaven.

All are welcome, all nations, people, sizes, shapes, skinny, fat, tall, short, all colors, it doesn't matter, all it matters is your heart & obedience, willingness to change or start fresh. Just walk in as u are. Church is for people struggling not perfect, like hospital for the sick.

This is a huge church and I thought I could stay anonymous but God sent the Holy Spirit and I got involved in several ministries including Lift Up Jesus. Through that ministry I became a part of helping others and glorifying God.

I have been here for most of my life, since i was 5 mabye... I am 12 now, and this church still never makes me feel old. They have a selection of the best preacher, and the best topics. I never got bored in this church. There is even a playground for toddlers, and a service, for children. There is a tram service which you get to the building faster. I know many people that go here. Best church.

I've been to many churches and this is the best one by far, Pastor Dudley is a great speaker and his messages are so powerful, he digs deep into the word of God and makes sure it's understandable to everyone. God definitely speaks through him and every time I have gone the sermon always relates to something I'm going through. Incredibly amazing!! Definitely recommend hearing him speak!!

This is one of my favorite places to be! I have been here for over 6+ years and have participated in many of the events. The people here are for real and truly love Jesus. Pastor Dudley is amazing and is an excellent teacher of the word. You walk away having learned something new and having been treated well. Dudley's story of why he wanted a multi-racial church is inspiring and reminds me that there are obedient Pastors in the world who want to make a difference and train those who want to know, who God really is. I love working with the 2 year olds monthly as they keep me on my toes :) They have snacks on sunday (bagels with cream cheese, doughnuts, juice, coffee) and on saturday evenings, they sometimes have food trucks. I must say that SOTH (Shepherd of the Hills) is one church that truly gives back to their volunteers. I have a great beach chair, water bottles, shirts, gift cards, amazing dinners at the church (catered & donated by Outback Steakhouse & Macaroni Grill). We all volunteer as a family at various events and the kids actually enjoy themselves. They also have great music!!!!!!!! Its really a fun and cool place to go. Shepherd has the most AMAZING JULY 4TH SPECTACULAR! If you've never gone, you truly are missing something big!!!!!!!!!!! There are soooooooooooooo many food and fun vendors its ridiculous. This year was especially cool to me. This year the staff stopped a guy who was passing out religious information at the church event. You would think that's fine? It's a church having a community event. Well, they stopped him because that's exactly what it is, a community event. Church service is on Saturday & Sundays and that wasn't time for church! It was time for community bonding and celebration! Wow what a message! I am constantly reminded how great this church is and why I come. It NOT without problems, but its how they work it out that impresses me.
