For those of you who take reviews to heart...
Just a little clarification on the two bad reviews.
ThornCreek adopted a 34 year old school, which was started by another church. (ThornCreek did not start this school). The heart was to resurrect the school, as it was already in great jeopardy of closing BEFORE ThornCreek got involved. The heart and motive was redemptive. After 18 months, it became clear, ThornCreek was not able to help it, and made the very difficult decision to close the school. It was a very painful experience for many. Understandably so. The person who wrote the negative review about leadership was very connected at a personal level to the school. We continue to pray for those students who were impacted by this experience.
The other negative review has to do with money. ThornCreek does a LOT of things in the community, including feeding the hungry. Through Food For Hope (which ThornCreek started), we feed 1,500 people every week. Obviously it takes money to do a lot of good things. ThornCreek will challenge people to honor God with their WHOLE LIFE, and will talk about money...occasionally. (Jesus talked about money a lot). It's NOT talked about every weekend, but when money is talked about, there is always someone who is offended. So sorry this person walked away with those conclusions. We really do love God and love people!
Having said all the above...we're NOT a perfect church. We're full of imperfect people who are learning to walk with Jesus Christ and growing in our faith and love. Doing our best to love on a community and make a difference in north Denver. read more
