Recently, while attending training in Dallas, TX, I want to attend a church. After researching the surrounding area, I decided to attend Northwest Bible Church. From the reviews, I thought it would be a welcoming church like the church that I attend in Denver, CO. I was extremely disappointed that upon arriving and entering the church, nobody greeted me. As I sat in the pews before church, again nobody greeted me. As the pastor talk about visitors, he shared that the QR code card, in the back of the pews, could be used to share their church. As an older person, I felt that that took away the personal touch of welcoming visitors. After the service, again nobody greeted me. As I was leaving, I went to the visitor’s area, and again nobody greeted me. It was when I went up to a person and shared how I felt being an unwelcome visitor. He listen to my concern but I felt that I was being listened to. It’s sad that in the day and age of modern technology, we have lost the ability to greet guests. Instead, your church uses QR codes to welcome guests. What's wrong with the picture? I can picture Jesus coming into your church and, your church would have him scan the QR code to obtain information about your church - no personal interaction.

I will definitely post new reviews after this. I attended it because I met a lovely and blessed couple playing volleyball and they invited me, they truly live the gospel and community, as it is values from the Northwest Bible Church. Thanks Christina!
The pastor preached a hard and deep sermon, very needed to nowadays. After the sermon I joined to Welcome Lunch, were new people and I were able to get to know the values, foundation, people, teams, make questions, get answers, be open about listen to each other and also a great time having nice conversations and food, plus a quiz about the community - which was very fun! Everyone should go to the welcome lunch to know the guidelines and get to know deeper how the church see the Word, People and values. They really have this sense of community, it seems to me a small church in big one. Thank you for all love, ai felt really welcomed!

Read moreA great place to learn about what the Bible (God) has to say, to grow in community with other Christ followers, and to serve those in the community who have a need for help. Comment on review below about Neil Tomba, our pastor - he was not always a Christ follower, but I believe it was while at LSU he found, accepted and has followed Jesus Christ as his savior and the leader of his life. He is not perfect, as none of (Christians or not) are, we all miss the mark at times - but I can testify that he is now a dedicated follower of Christ and submits to the authority of Christ in his life, as well as the leadership in our church - please come visit and ask Neil to coffee, or a bike ride - I think you would find him a very different person that what...
