FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for in a church?

Start with what matters most to you. Some people prioritize worship style, whether that's contemporary music, traditional hymns, or something in between. Others care most about community programs like children's ministry or youth groups. Location and service times matter too. A church that's convenient to attend regularly is one you'll actually attend.

On FaithStreet, church profiles include service times, worship style tags, and community details so you can get a feel before you visit. We recommend visiting at least two or three churches before deciding. Each one has its own personality, and the right fit is often something you feel more than analyze.

What happens when I visit a church for the first time?

Most services last about an hour. You'll typically be greeted at the door and can sit wherever you like (there are no assigned seats). Services usually include music, a sermon or message, and sometimes communion or a time of prayer. It's okay to follow along at your own pace. Most people around you are happy to see someone new.

If you have children, many churches offer kids' programs during the service. Look for church profiles on FaithStreet to check whether they offer children's ministry before you go. Most churches are genuinely glad to see new faces. Over 6,600 churches on FaithStreet describe themselves as friendly.

Can I visit a church if I'm not religious?

Absolutely. Churches are open to everyone, and most actively welcome visitors who are exploring faith for the first time, or who aren't sure what they believe. You won't be put on the spot or asked to make any commitments. Many people visit churches out of curiosity, for the community, or because a friend invited them.

We asked thousands of churches on FaithStreet "What would you say to someone who isn't a Christian?" Their responses are some of the most genuine content on the site. You can read them in the "What to Expect" section above. The overwhelming message: you're welcome here, wherever you are in your journey.

Do I need to dress up for church?

It depends on the church, but the short answer is: come as you are. Over 6,100 churches on FaithStreet tag themselves as casual, meaning jeans and a t-shirt are perfectly welcome. Some churches with a more traditional liturgy style tend toward business casual, but even there, no one is going to turn you away for how you're dressed.

If you're unsure, check church profiles on FaithStreet. The worship style tags will give you a good sense of how formal or relaxed the atmosphere is.

What's the difference between denominations?

Denominations are families of churches that share a common theology and tradition. The largest on FaithStreet include Baptist (SBC) with over 49,000 churches, Methodist (UMC) with over 33,000, and Catholic with over 20,000. Nondenominational churches (over 24,000 on FaithStreet) don't align with a specific tradition and tend to vary widely in style.

The differences can involve worship style, governance, theology, and cultural emphasis. Some are more liturgical (structured, with set prayers and readings); others are more contemporary and informal. Our denomination guide breaks down each tradition so you can understand what to expect before you visit.
