Ask Atlanta Bishop, I'm sure he can steer you the right direction!

Atlanta West UPC?

What about the church PastorEd by Dr Michael Youssef Church of the Apostles? I hear good things about them.

Re: When visiting in Atlanta.....

Louie Giglio launched a church there recently.

Ravi Zacharias is headquartered there.

What is your flavor? Non-Denom, Baptiscostal, UPCI/WPF, AMF/Indp OP, etc?

Just visit the Georgia Guidestones and perform your devotions there.

So West Atlanta UPC is my best choice? Is that the only one?

Atlanta West is a good church.
If you can get there on Sunday and the choir is singing, that is a treat.
Stone Mountain UPC is a good church to visit, also. They are very friendly.
First Pentecostal Church in Buford would be my choice, but that's because I attended there for about 9-10 years. They are independent, I believe, but more aligned with WPF.
I wouldn't even mind visiting Atlanta Bishop's church, but I do not remember the name!

Re: When visiting in Atlanta.....

It depends on where you will be in the city. If you are looking for a balanced UPC with a great choir and music, I would recommend Atlanta West Pentecostal Church in Lithia Springs. Pastor Johns is a great man & a great Pastor/Teacher and If I were UPC - this is where I would attend. It is about 30-40 minutes West of Atlanta just off I-20. If you are looking for more Conservative (WPF I think) - First Pentecostal Church of Buford is about 40 minutes North East of ATL off I-985. Pastor Tim Copeland is a Classical Pentecostal/Apostolic Preacher and is very fervent and passionate about what he believes.
Two GREAT Independent Apostolic Churches - Harvest Time Apostolic Ministries with Bishop Joel Trout in Riverdale, about 15-20 mins south of ATL, near the airport off I-75 S.
Connect Point Christian Center with Bishop Don Abernathy/Pastor Mark Abernathy is on Highway 124 - north of I-20 in Snellville, GA.
There is every kind of church with every kind of flavor in or near Metro Atlanta.
I recommend our home church in Gainesville, GA - 40-50 minutes North of ATL off I-985, Free Chapel with Pastor Jentezen Franklin. You must be there at least 30 minutes early to get a decent parking place or a seat and we seat 3300 and it is packed at 9 & 11 AM and Wednesdays at 7 PM. (We are expanding to 6000 seats as almost 20,000 come through our two Gainesville Campuses on Sundays).
On most Sundays, I will be ministering at TRUE LIFE CHURCH in Ball Ground, GA - 40 minutes N on I-75 to I-575.
I hope you enjoy a great worship experience when you visit our great city!

AB,

Tell us more about "Connect Point Christian Center" pastored by the Abernathy's. Their names seem familiar. Were they UPC? What are their churches like? Where do they fit in the spectrum of Pentecost.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
