I just experienced one of the most arrogant, I suppose you call him "pastor" I've ever witnessed…read more He wasn't teaching from the holy Bible. He was bragging about how great the grass is in his yard compared to other places in America. He was bragging about how the city of Chicago has abundant water while people who love God have to ration water in the Western United States. He falsely claimed that the Chicagoland area is the greatest place in the world, yet it still harbors so many abortion clinics, pornography centers, and countless evils. The church itself is more of a circus, filled with fog machine smoke, theatrical lighting, and all the fakery of a performance rather than service on to God. Along with all of his bragging and arrogance, he also asked people to give him $10 million. My stomach was literally sick from what I saw in this arrogant building housing people who are more interested in texting and looking on their Facebook then what this leader of this organization has to say. Gods people are starving. The lost need saved. But I don't think any of those two things matter to this church.

This is the most loving Church! It is very large, although you do not get lost! More people will…read morecome and welcome you and make you part of the family then any other Church. You become family when attending Calvary Church! The Church teaches straight out of the Bible, no less, no more! They do not make up rules and they teach you how to have a RELATIONSHIP with the Lord and not just have religion. I didn't really understand about the Holy Spirit. One evening, I will never be able to explain it, I was TRULY touched by the Holy Spirit at Calvary. I swear I have never felt more deeply in my heart everyday before that evening! I feel at home here and our Pastor makes everything in the Bible more understanding. Please come and visit, you will never want to go to a different Church!

After struggling with my faith for many years and dealing with guilt and mistrust of the Church, I…read moredecided to return to Calvary, the church I used to attend. It has changed immensely, with a new pastor. On the first Sunday I returned, Pastor Marty preached that, "one of his favorite sermons was Jonathan Edwards 'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God'. You should all look it up." This barbaric 18th century sermon is one of the original fire and brimstone, you're all going to Hell sermons. Just what I didn't need while wrestling with intense guilt in my life. The next few Sunday's he regularly pressured and pan-handled about paying HIM 10% of your income (tithe to the local church). Infact, the whole season of Lent was to be dedicated to just this practice. After a few weeks of this, I was reminded of why I was disgusted with church and struggled with Christianity. Of course, I am never returning to that church. If ever there was someone to put in my life to help me deconvert to atheism, Pastor Marty Sloan would be that guy.

During Communion at Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church, my daughter approached the priest, bowed…read moreand had one hand on top of the other to receive the Eucharist. Instead of offering guidance, he repeatedly told her to "do it properly," but never explained what he wanted her to change. He then began questioning her religion, asking whether she was Catholic or Christian. After she responded that she is Catholic, he said, "then do it properly" she was unsure what he wanted her to do differently, then he said again, "Are you sure you're Catholic?" Again she replied yes, I am Catholic. Shortly before this interaction, the priest had taken the Eucharist away from a young man who had said he was Christian. The priest began scolding him while the young man respectfully was nodding that he understood. The situation was uncomfortable to witness and felt unnecessarily harsh. It seemed like a missed opportunity for a compassionate conversation about the Catholic faith, especially since the young man was attending Mass and clearly showing interest. Although my daughter ultimately received Communion, the interaction was prolonged and uncomfortable. She was not given clear instruction only public questioning about her faith. My daughter approached respectfully and reverently. Being questioned in that way, in front of others, left her embarrassed and shaken. She was crying when we got home, which was especially heartbreaking because she was the one who had asked to go to Mass that day. Reverence for the Eucharist is important. However pastoral guidance should reflect clarity, dignity, and compassion. Interactions like this can leave a lasting impression on young people who are trying to grow in their faith. I hope this feedback encourages more compassionate and thoughtful handling of similar situations in the future.

Small church able to appease a crowd of approximately one hundred and twenty or so. Love the stained glass with mention of four N.T. books, Matthew, Mark, Luke & John.

I will be the first to review this terrific church. As someone who has had both positive and…read morenegative church experiences I think it's nice to know what to expect when you try out a new place. First, if you want to hear good truth and down to earth preaching this is the place. Scott Hodge's messages are helpful for your everyday life. He is honest and direct and doesn't avoid difficulr issues. The music is good but a little too modern for my taste, since we are usually late we miss much of the music anyway. We don't have kids but the play area for kids is beautiful. The coffee bar is nice to have available. They have Saturday evening services which we enjoy attending as we are not morning people. My only complaint would be the lack of small groups, I would like to be involved in a small group or bible study year round, they have some groups that last a few months. They also offer their sermons on their website or in cd form. When we are busy or sleep in and miss service we appreciate having multiple ways to hear the message. I highly recommend the Orchard. After several bad experiences, I now look forward to church each week.

SOUL FOOD! I have been starving and I am being fed here…read more I do not know if someone has given them my life's resume, but I have cried every Sunday (touched by Christ tears) since I have started. This is how I know I am in the right place, at the right time. With all that is happening in our world, praying alone was not going to cut it for me anymore. I need my Brothers and Sisters in Christ, so I don't feel so helpless.

Where do I begin about my church! When I started attending services here, the lead Pastors were Ken…read moreand Christle Hansen. Under their leadership the church was ok to me. When they spoke the Word, I was definitely in-tune but I felt something was missing. Now being under NEW "management" with Pastors Jeremiah and Bianca Stingl, what I felt was missing is now there! The church is so full of life, tons of events going on. There's groups you can join to get to know other attendees of the church. Although I was married here back in 2015 (under the Hansen's) the church does miss them terribly. I'm eager to see what God has in store for his church under the Stingl's!
