My family and I have been attending ET for over a year now. After being in full time ministry for…read moreover 23yrs, we needed a place for our family to rest. ET has been an amazing place to rest, our 2 older girls have found a home in the youth group and our 2 younger girls have really enjoyed the kids ministry. Pastors John and Lynette are amazing leaders who are leading a church that was once dying. This is not for the faint of heart! They are navigating it well. Pastor John preaches verse by verse and teaches the whole bible! Even hard topics! He stands outside in the lobby and meets as many new people as he can. As with any growing church there are things that just take time. I would highly recommend ET for anyone looking for a place to call home. People are kind and friendly.

Since the first time my family walked into this church we felt right at home. We were welcomed by…read moretons of people and by the time we left that first day, we had built a number of connections with people who would become great friends. There's an incredible space for kids to go during the service where they can learn about God while mom and dad are worshipping and learning. On Wednesday, there's a service for youth that's engaging and connects them to each other and to God. Evangel Temple has a long reputation of being a great church in Springfield and my family is grateful to be a part of it!

My family and I are so glad to be back in Springfield and to be at RIDGECREST BAPTIST CHURCH. The…read moreworship, the preaching, the small groups... all are wonderful and transformative. Gospel centered, discipleship oriented, and mission focused. An awesome church with exceptional leadership.

It is not a mission church that caters to the lost but is a fellowship of believers where everyone is welcome to sit in on and receive the Gospel truth. Where the focus is on the body of Christ and how to get us to a closer understanding of God and our purpose in life. The message does not spare the truth and to the lost it is offensive. The music is contemporary mix and lead by an incredibly gifted worship leader. The pastor sermons are available online and you will discover he will open the passages like you have never seen before locally. He has a doctrine in Christian Theology and has a great friendly personality. Not a lukewarm church. It practices church discipline when biblically called for just like the bible modeled. 9am Sunday school- 10am fellowship as break fast -10:30 service. Reformed theology. You either love it because it is a breath of fresh air compared to the modern churches, or you don't cause you can't handle the TRUTH. Hahaha.

When I visit Springfield, I attend Northside Christian Church. Having grown up Baptist, I am use to…read morereal preaching and sermons that include the plan of salvation and Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, there are many "churches" that have a completely different focus. Northside Christian Church is the real deal. Although this is not my church home, I have visited enough times to know they live up to their mission of "Connecting People to Christ and One Another". Both of my sisters and their families attend NCC. I am truly impressed by the church's ministries for children and teens. I am so thankful I was raised in a Bible based, Christian church. It makes me thrilled to see other children have the same opportunity and develop a sincere belief in Christ. If you live in the Springfield area and need a church home, I recommend visiting Northside Christian Church or check out their website to read more about their ministries.

Wow, I've never said that before, but I believe this church is marked by GOD. You must check it out!!!
