Every experience or initiative led by this AMAZING center is is so impactful! Expect that when you enter this facility for bible study or a workshop you are in for a life changing and uplifting highlight to your day. I just came back from the hustle & bustle of life - and was invited to meet my mentors and bible study friends for the first time in a few months, so I cleared my schedule and headed to The Hope Center to the Women's Luncheon 2018 and our speaker was Angela Paxton that told her amazing story, and serenaded us with two very touching songs. Love all the community, church and leadership outreach services and programs the center has to offer!

**Gift of Christmas Event** This annual "Christmas show" is a full-blown production!!! Think…read moreCirque du Soleil meets Barnum & Bailey meets the Rockettes, all backed by a massive professional choir and live orchestra, and wrapped in a beautiful, reverent message about the birth of our Savior. It's obvious that an extraordinary amount of time, talent, and heart goes into this event. The dancers, singers, musicians, stage crew, honestly everyone involved, are operating at a level you'd expect from a Broadway or Vegas production. If you enjoy quality music, elite vocals, powerful choreography, acrobatics, and a jaw-dropping laser show, this absolutely delivers. We've seen the commercials. We've seen the social media hype. We've heard people say for years, "It's spectacular." And somehow... going in person is still so much more than the advertising can capture. The energy and emotion simply don't translate through a screen. Reasonably priced tickets. Not a bad seat in the house (seriously). The auditorium seating is made of pews with tiny numbered "spaces," which is wildly efficient lol. A large, friendly, well-organized team that helps guide you directly to your seats -- don't stress about that. Free parking. Everything runs smoothly and intentionally .. no chaos, no confusion, just incredibly well-executed hospitality. TiP: They don't allow outside food or drinks, but bottled water is available for sale if you need something during the performance. TIP: We noticed children under the age 10 did not have the patience or attention span to enjoy a production this long. At least have the courtesy to leave when they are (tired, bored, fussy, talking etc). Everybody is too close together for that. If you're looking for a Christmas experience and a meaningful message, Gift of Christmas does not disappoint. It's inspiring and genuinely memorable, the kind of event that reminds you what the season is really about. We'll be back. Every year.

I note that most of the reviews that rate this Laodecean Church low are locked up in their App…read more Why? I will not put apps on my device. Yes, it is a textbook example of the Laodecean Church. They are so busy doing "stuff", but if you don't fit in to one of the clicks, you are dismissed as irrelevant by the body. I attnded this church for about 1-1/2 years. it was so very cold. on one occassion, I spoke to Pastor Jack about the hersay of Good Friday (in two plaves in Scripture, Jesus said He would be in the grave three days and three nights) and Easter "Ishtar" and instead of providing an apolgetic, he just dismissed me. I was in a Bible study group. I am an older, single guy. I lost my precious wife years ago through her passing. As a single guy, every time I would talk to any lady, the other ladies would swarm over us, engage the first lady, and lead her away. If I was a creeper, that would be one thing; but, I was faithful to my late wife for 28 years. I have had a good stable job‐-career for over 35 years, own my house, while I know I am a sinner, I am not a bad person, etc. In fact I regularly go to the streets to witness. Why would they act this way? Hurt the hurting? The final straw was when we went to lunch one Sunday. I ordered my food, set my drink and plasticware at the seat where I was sitting. When I went to get my food, one of the ladies pushed my stuff aside and took the seat. Obviously, I was not welcome. I shared with the leader why I left. But it was not just me who they treated like crap. My youngest daughter who had graduated college tried to get into a 20-something group. She was rarely invited to lunch after church or to group events. My prayer is that a great revival comes to the leadership and members of this church. All your great conferences, showing of movies, outreach ministries, etc., are no substitute for the cold, callouse treatment of outsiders that don't fit your clicks. I do not want Jesus to say to the majority of their membership, "...depart from me you workers of iniquity, for I never knew you!"

During our time at the church we learned a lot. My husband looks upon those men as hero's. I recently lost my sister Kimberly Tippett and one year olsd nephew Kamryn in the North Texas tornado storm. We were helpless as we've never lost an immediate family member or planned a funeral before. My husband called Pastor Dames and he embraced our family and told us whatever we needed the church would meet. He connected us with the bereavement team and they went to work on our behalf. They allowed us to use the church facility at no cost even though my sister was not a member. They pulled out the red carpet! Portia was a complete angel! We were able to be relieved from the extreme stress of planning a funeral of two for such a tragedy of lost. Phenomenal church, non-diluated teaching! Passion for Christ and his followers. Love love love NDCBF!

Just moved to the area and tried out the closest UU congregation. The greeters didn't greet (or…read moreeven acknowledge) us, but many of the other congregants, seeing our confusion, stepped in and helped out. Really liked the sermon. I'm not used to a UU minister wearing such formal religious garb. That put me off at first and made me worry that this church was going to be to goddy. (I'm an agnostic and prefer not to hear the g word) It turned out well though. We will be going back. Our last church we were members after the first service we attended. This one will take more evaluation but I have a good feeling. The greeters could stand to get a little more training though. :)

Under the leadership of Lead Teaching Pastor Matt Chandler, and campus pastor Hunter Hall, The Village has grown and thrived in a time when seeker-centric and prosperity gospel churches have become the norm. The Village's firm commitment to preaching the Gospel--the good news about the life, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ--is the foundation for their ministry. From that flows worship, a gathering of community, service, and ultimately multiplication. If you're a believer and looking for a family to do life with, a group of similarly broken, hurting, messed up individuals whose only hope is in Christ, look no further. With a relaxed dress code and a welcoming spirit, The Village Church Plano is a great spot to call home.

Incredibly welcoming…read more From the moment you pull into the driveway you are greeted with a smile from the incredible parking volunteers. Greeted again with a smile at the doors and a crowd of smiling, chatting people usually scatter the foyer. The signage for children's care (birth - 5th grade) is easily found along with the sanctuary and restrooms. The campus is still fairly new (fall 2014) so they are growing in all areas, but the foundation is really wonderful. Pastor Hunter (the campus pastor) is a genuine speaker who truly loves his Plano campus. Jamin (the groups pastor) is a friendly face you'll find doing announcements or wandering the kids check-in area high-fiving kids and saying hi. Adam (connections pastor) is everywhere. He's greeting at the door, mingling in the foyer, welcoming and answering questions in the "visitors/connect" area. Melissa (children's minister) is hands on in the kids area. Greeting kids, making new families feel welcome and helping with check-in. My husband and I instantly felt at home at the Village and are eager to get invovled, find community and grow in the Lord here.
