While I am not a member of this church, I have visited 4 or 5 times over the past year, and each time, I have come away with the following views of this community: 1) They're all about the person, Jesus Christ. He lived and He died and He rose again - for all of us. 2) They're going to love on you. People are genuinely welcoming, and not in a superficial way. 3) The teaching is powerful, intellectually challenging, and thoroughly Bible-centric. If you want to dig in further on their theological views, check out http://hopecc.com/about-us/mission-vision/. 4) You're going to be called to serve God there. They have countless opportunities to serve the city, serve the church, and serve globally. The church is located in downtown Minneapolis, so get ready to dig in to serve our city. http://hopecc.com/serve/ 5) Hope CC takes music seriously: "it as it is the duty of the Worship Team to follow the model of God's creational artistic example by striving to create accessible, authentic, (and sometimes provocative!) musical art." Their worship centers around hymns composed/arranged within modern/contemporary music styles. They're recording a worship album now. I cannot recommend this church highly enough. Check it out.

A must see for out-of-town visitors as this is the cathedral from which the city got its name; it's also the third largest Catholic cathedral in the nation. If you're an out of town tourist staying in the downtown area, the 21 bus will take you right to it. It is open to the public and the inside is beautiful and pristine. I was there late morning on May 8, 2025 and around 11:10am, ALL the church bells started chiming! It was a wonderful feeling inside listening to the beautiful bells! I later learned that it was the moment the new pope was elected. A small miracle, and a wonderful blessing, I would say. May all your wishes and prayers come true.

I wanted to love this church so badly. I attended for about a year and went to a different campus…read morebefore I began attending city campus. Multiple times I tried to get involved -- filling out new member cards, interest cards, trying to text with people and even call different leaders of teams. Unfortunately, I never received responses. Once, I received a welcome text and when I responded with questions, I was ignored. As a young Christian, I was attending alone. I kept going, hoping I would make a connection of people but I never did. After a year, I left the church and decided to try a new one. The worst part about it was that I kept reaching out but the church would not reach back out to me. I gave it a two star still because I enjoyed the music and messages. But, if you are looking to get connected with the church, this is not the place for you. Another reason why I might have felt so left out is because it is a mega church. I wish the messages of outreach and Kingdom building applied to the people within the church.

Spirit Garage is a comfortable place that values individuals and independent thought. As someone…read morethat wandered away from organized religion after high school (for the same reasons, many people reject faith entirely), I found myself longing for an authentic church community. I've met a great group of people not only studying and questioning religious doctrine through today's lens but also living their beliefs in earnest, as imperfect humans striving towards peace, justice, compassion, and understanding, and although on the fringe, still worthy of God's grace. Pastor Holly is very cool. She begins each service with a centering poem and stresses that "all means all" not only in word but in practice. There are now five different bands, so each week is a different experience with many types of music for you to enjoy from rock to folk and more, including one group that has a clogger! There are local coffee and snacks as well as an art table, and participation is optional depending on one's personal comfort level. Although the format is similar to regular church service, it takes place at the Hook and Ladder Theatre, is stripped down, casual, and "church" just really doesn't cut it. I've also enjoyed events outside of a typical church format, from sharing a meal or taking part in several book discussions. We've read about other religions, dissected "scary church words," even reading secular works that also have significance and talk about how our personal experiences shape our viewpoint. Coming up, we are reading "Red State Christians" by a local author, and I can't wait to continue on this journey with new friends.

I was visiting MN to officiate a wedding and being away from my own congregation I always try to visit somewhere else. Remember that this was one person's - a pastor no less - perspective and if you are looking for a church, you must give it more than one or two visits. Spirit Garage was a good overall experience and if i were looking for a community it would warrant a return trip or two. The things I enjoyed - The band was solid. Most bands do not pull off doing secular songs very well, but they were solid; - Leadership was diverse in terms of male/female; - Pastor was talking to this community; - Casual feel - Multigenerational - Easy parking - Theologically grounded Stuff that didn't jive with me - Where are all the brown people? I understand this is MN and might be why I would not move here, but there were only three non-White folks in the space of 70-80 people. - Hard to create talk back in a theater style setting. Everyone is facing forward so are not looking at each other. Again, one visit so check it out for yourself.
