Lime Kiln is a narrow two lane road that has very little traffic during the week and most of the traffic on Sunday is PL. They still have police officers holding traffic on a public road so their members can enter and leave their private lot, which then backs traffic up at the stop sign on Post. If they will leave the traffic alone, everything will move just fine! Right now, if you need to be somewhere on Sunday morning, leave early because PL members getting in and out of their parking lot is more important than where you have to be!

I'm sorry to hear that this was U C.'s experience. While I can't speak to every conversation U C…read more has had or every conclusion reached, I can speak to my own experience as someone who calls Compass Bible Church Hill Country home. I've found the pastors to be deeply committed to teaching God's Word faithfully and carefully. They encourage us to test everything they teach against Scripture (Acts 17:11), not simply accept their opinions. Some theological topics--such as assurance of salvation, sanctification, or books like Enoch--have been debated by sincere Christians for centuries. It's understandable that believers won't agree on every interpretation. Regarding salvation, I have never heard the church teach that a Christian must "start over," make a new confession, or be re-baptized every time they sin. The consistent emphasis has been that salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone, and that genuine saving faith produces a transformed life--not that good works earn salvation. As for education, I've never felt that a college degree or academic background determined whether someone belonged. Our small groups include people from many different walks of life, and I've seen everyone--from tradesmen to professionals to stay-at-home parents--welcomed and cared for. No church is perfect because no church is made up of perfect people. There have undoubtedly been conversations that could have gone better, and I hope anyone who leaves with questions is heard respectfully. Compass is a church that encourages conversation. But describing the church as manipulative or unloving simply doesn't reflect what I have consistently experienced. I've seen pastors give sacrificially of their time, members care for one another through illness and hardship, and the congregation strive to grow in holiness while extending grace. If someone is looking for a church that prioritizes verse-by-verse exposition of Scripture, takes discipleship seriously, and desires to glorify Christ above personalities or trends, I believe Compass Bible Church Hill Country is well worth visiting. Rather than relying solely on reviews--positive or negative--I would encourage anyone searching for a church to attend several services, meet the pastors and members, ask questions openly, and prayerfully discern whether it is where God is leading them. Grace and truth are both biblical values (John 1:14), and my experience has been that this church sincerely strives to pursue both.

My 5th grade daughter & I visited Compass on Good Friday April 3, 2026. We were both soo…read moredisappointed in the overall service that we decided not to go back on Easter Sunday. The pastor started preaching without any greeting to the congregation OR welcome to new visitors! One of the reviews described the pastors/preaching as "military grade" & that's what it felt like sadly. The pastor used all these big words that I understood (I have a Masters degree) but wondered who he was trying to impress! He also never even cracked a smile......nor did any of the church members! As I looked around, the members looked like robots looking straight ahead at their "leader.! Not a SINGLE person appeared to notice us & after we left, my daughter said to me "those people don't have the joy of the Lord!" That broke my heart because followers of Jesus should be the friendliest, most welcoming, most non-judgmental people in the world reaching out to a world that is desperately hurting!

Since that evening those memories have lingered, the treatment I received from the organizers and some of those attendees, has left pain, hurt, and dark memories of that organization and the event they put on for the public. These photos are of my children from that evening a year ago. Last week I went back to see the registration details on that organizations website for this same event coming up in a few weeks, to only come across THESE RESTRICTIONS now plastered across their webpage. I took my children, I as the chaperone, my son as the prince, and my daughter's as the princesses. I was the ONLY mother/female there with her children last year. Everyone else was an adult male with a young girl. What was the harm, damage done by myself chaperoning my children to attend a "prince and princess dance"?? To now place restrictions on their annual event. The organizers made it obvious they did not welcome me there, they all kept approaching me questioning me. When I left that night, I felt I could not have left there fast enough. My children deserve equal treatment as any other child does. To treat a parent, mother, adult, who did no harm and had the children's best Interest first to attend that event. Those organizers should be ashamed of themselves for what they did and said. This organization hosting this event coming up in a few weeks, shame on all the organizers who have put their opinions into putting this on, how they mistreat parents, discriminate towards families and don't welcome families of different dynamics. I made a few phone calls around the city, and THANKFULLY there are other organizations locally that recognize the dynamics of families and WELCOME my children and myself together to attend their prince/princess dance. We are now registered to attend these events with these other gracious organizations. They will keep my business, with positive words, my support, and I will gladly give them referrals! Thank you to these organizations/businesses that open their doors to all families! (One day that other organization may hopefully open their eyes and mind to see how discriminatory they are to publically place those restrictions. Shameful).
