Maybe I might be a little more " in the know" than most as I did so many missions and got involved in so many things, but my family decided to leave and I see other people that are leaving because of some decisions that the church is making and how they treat people. They do have great messages that they share with people about being Christ's followers as they put it. Yet the things they do don't quite follow their own advice. So I would say if you just want to be more of a person that just wants to go to church once in a while to hear a good message this is for you. However if you really want people that walk the walk and talk the talk maybe because you might get involved a little more. It really didn't work for many others that I know. All the good people that I know that were more involved in the church ended up leaving. Some good pastors left. Some good organizers left. Some good people left. So we're kind of left with the old standbys which personally I'm not too impressed with their integrity or lack thereof. I love my God and I really don't want to say something against the church but if someone starts going here and starts questioning is this how Christians are supposed to be.... Then that's a bad thing so that's why I feel content in the fact to leave this review. So far Compass Church also in Naperville has been looking good. Keeping my fingers crossed that they...

I've been going here since I was in 2ed grade, and I've been to summer camp and winter camp and there is NO better place to worship God. not only is it fun but the small group leaders in high SCHOOL and up are great, they help u with any questions u have and help u understand it. the songs aren't the usual boring slow songs about yonder, NO! they're loud rock songs and they're really great! for kids in elementary school they have kid city, were they have fun in small groups and can sing and dance and learn all of the important stories of the Bible. I have become really unlocked with God and I'm only in 6th grade. I live yellow box church and I hope I can become a small group leader when I'm in high school.

i think this constant sermon/ campaign for money is over board. Pastor dave is asking for commitments, some of us can commit to 6 figures, some 7....wow. 6 weeks of the same giving theme, has become to much for me....
i look for a church that is Christ like, i can not find a place were Christ said give....money....i look for a church that teaches faithfulness, not give....money week after week after week...so you want 26 million, what about the needs of the ones of your church? i asked for help around Christmas time....there were no funds for that.
