Thinking of Visiting?
Thinking of attending a worship service at Marietta Church of God, but not sure what to expect? We realize that visiting a new church can be a little intimidating, so we'd like to answer some common questions.
How do I get to Marietta Church of God?
Marietta Church of God is located at 1083 Allgood Rd. Marietta GA 30062 Click Link for Directions and Map:
Will I have to stand up in front of people?
Some churches call on their visitors to stand up during the service and introduce themselves. While the people at Marietta Church of God are genuinely interested in getting to know you and make you feel welcome, we will never call on you or embarrass you in any way. You can relax and enjoy meeting people at your own pace.
Do I have to dress up?
No, you don't. We encourage people to dress comfortably. For some, that may mean dressing up, but for most it simply means wearing casual clothes. The New Testament simply instructs us to dress modestly and decently, so we do not burden people unnecessarily by requiring them to dress up in fancy clothes they do not normally wear just to "go to church." We want everyone to come, be comfortable, and enjoy learning about God together.
What time do your services start?
Sunday School is at 9:30 AM , Morning Worship is at 10:30 AM, Sunday Evening Worship is at 5:00 PM and Wednesday's at 7:00 PM. We also meet at various times throughout the week for Bible studies, prayer and other fellowship opportunities. Check out the church calendar for dates and times of other activities.
Where will my children go during the service?
Your children will love Marietta Church of God! We provide fun, hands-on Bible lessons and activities every Sunday morning designed especially to help them learn the truths of the Bible. We also provide a safe, cozy nursery for infants through 27 Months. Our children's ministry leaders are parents just like you who value every child and treat them with the utmost care and attention.
Do I have to be a Member to participate?
At Marietta Church of God you do not have to be a member to participate in Ministry Functions, Quite frankly we want as many non-members to participate as possible, We offer many events and festivals to the community and encourage participation by all members and non-members.
What's the preaching like?
At Marietta Church of God, it is our sincere desire to share God's Word in all its truth without watering anything down, but to do it in love, and in ways that are interesting, engaging and relevant to your daily life. While the Bible certainly does convict us of our sin in order to point out our lost condition, the overarching theme of the entire Bible is God's unconditional love for all humankind, as is shown by God sending His precious Son, Jesus, to pay the price for our sin. If you attend one of our services, you will hear the truths of God's Word presented passionately, clearly, and lovingly in ways that will make sense to you. But why not find out for yourself?

What kind of music do you have?
This is a common question. A huge debate has arisen in churches over whether traditional music or contemporary music is "right." We believe that God has inspired people throughout the ages to write hymns and songs of praise and that He continues to inspire musicians from all generations to write music that praises Him and brings glory to His name. We believe that debates regarding styles of music are more a matter of personal preference than anything else.
We offer a blend of traditional and Contemporary worship services praising God with great church hymns of both past and present, as well as using a blend of music styles to glorify God. Offerings of praise and thanksgiving are expressed through timeless music led by our choir. Worship services are enhanced with very talented soloists, and occasional brass instruments.
You will hear a great mix of new and old music - plenty of songs you know and love; popular contemporary Christian music, original compositions, old gospel favorites, and some traditional music.
The focus of all of our worship services is to bring glory to God and to support and encourage every worshipper in their journey of faith.
