So, based on the basic Christian belief that nobody's perfect (we're all sinners), I wouldn't give this church a 5...nor any other church for that matter. So, I'm giving Northbridge a 4. ...but I think it's good that the church, as a whole, doesn't go around trying to look perfect either. They're about living in and living out the grace displayed through the Gospel, and holding to the truth of the Gospel...being the "good news" of Jesus Christ. The first time my husband and I went to Northbridge we saw a couple people who obviously struggled to fit in socially...yet they were out there...one seemed to be pleasantly waiting and enjoying the atmosphere, the other smiling and talking with people. On our way out, we discussed the thought that if this church didn't try to 'hide' these people, then we just might fit in ourselves! It's close to 10 years later, and while no church is perfect, we definitely found "home". --My husband adds that he really likes that "without ignoring the reality of sin, the pastor preaches/teaches the importance of the grace Christ extends to us...and extending that grace to others." read more
