Thinkering Lab

I have never felt so unwelcome in a place that is supposed to embody kindness and community. From the moment I stepped in, the atmosphere was cold, uninviting, and filled with judgment rather than compassion. A church should be a sanctuary — a place of warmth, acceptance, and grace — but instead, I left feeling uncomfortable, dismissed, and deeply disappointed. This church preaches love with words but fails to practice it in action. Instead of open arms, I was met with indifference and exclusion. It’s heartbreaking when a place that should be built on faith and fellowship feels more like a closed club where outsiders are not welcome. If you’re seeking genuine community, encouragement, and spiritual growth, I strongly urge you to look elsewhere. A true church should uplift, not push people away.

Wonderful people who are welcoming and accepting. You matter here!

Horrible. Website says open at 8am. Sunday. I arrived doors open. Go into sanctuary. Begin reading my bible. A deacon, adam. Asked me to leave. Polietly. What kind of person, let alone a man of christ, asks another man to leave the sanctuary. While reading his bible. This man, adam, he shook my hand. In the hall and directed me to the sanctuary. Didnt ask me to come back later.... funny... why the change. Why interupt me in my time of fellowship. You sir are not a christian. I promise you in my heart ypur conduct laat sunday was unbecoming of any god fearing man. I went down the road to the southern baptist church. Greeted at the door and informed services were not for a while. I said that was ok. And i was directed to the sanctuary where i sat and read my bible. Also where preperations for the service were being made. Adam. You should be ashamed of yourself. I know you wont be. But i forgive you any way. Anyone who may be wondering how i presented myself sunday in the photo.

Nice historic church in downtown Colorado Springs that allows our specific support group
