A sampling of the capital city area's well known
Churches,
temples and houses of worship

Adventure Christian Church
An independent non-denominational church located in the highly educated demographic of the Roseville - Rocklin area. This church became known for its relaxed atmosphere oriented toward teaching instead of rule-making. The success of this style is seen in its growth to 3,000 attenders in under five years, with almost no publicity beyond word of mouth, and no heavy-handed fundraising tactics. Music style is contemporary, led by a highly professional husband and wife team. Their senior pastor is a former California State University instructor who can now be heard on radio AM 710 at 2:30 pm Monday thru Friday.

Capital Christian Center
Sacramento's largest church, it incorporates a respected counseling ministry that helps marriages, counsels victims of various forms of abuse in group sessions, has 12-step programs for recovering substance users and pornography users, and educates people having co-dependancy issues. They also educate adults through Capital Bible Institute and school children at Capital Christian School.

First Covenant Church
Pastor Ted Smith is widely appreciated for his straightforward, modern yet light-hearted preaching style. His teaching may be heard on Sacramento's KFIA - AM radio 710, at 2:00 pm Monday thru Friday. This church has numerous programs including one of the area's most active singles groups. Church is visible from Highway 50 near Zinfandel Drive in Rancho Cordova.

Sunset Christian Center
In Rocklin (just north of Roseville), this Assemblies of God congregation has respected preaching, music and youth ministries plus a Christian school. .

Warehouse Christian Ministries
This group pioneered, locally, the concept of an informal church which happily allows people to attend wearing blue jeans. Their contemporary musical style has catered to the younger generation from the beginning (even 20 years ago when most other churches' music seemed stuck in the Lawrence Welk generation of the 1950's). To get away from stuffy church building images, they chose to locate in a warehouse business park. This church's contemporary style was decades ahead of its time. Most of the highly successful "competing" local churches have since adopted a similar style. Located on Business Park Drive between Sacramento and Rancho Cordova.
