Butch B.'s review may make sense to him, but for those of us with a wider view of sin and society,…read moreit is horribly misleading. (There is a question as to whether what Butch B. is reporting is accurate, but we will deal with his statement on its face.) Hillary Clinton made a point of telling the nation in her acceptance speech that her worldview was shaped in Sunday School; Donald Trump is so unfamiliar with Scripture that he can't even properly identify the name of a book ("Two Corinthians"). Yes, Ms. Clinton may not want to make abortion illegal, but if sin equals sin equals sin, what are we to make of Mr. Trump's serial adultery and general aversion to truth-telling? I was also unsure at first about who to vote for. ... There are many "non-recommended" reviews of support for Crossroads here on Yelp, and if you are considering attending Crossroads in the future, I would recommend that you read them and weigh what people who are actually involved with the congregation have to say about it. ... For those who wonder what my involvement is, my wife and I attend Crossroads infrequently when we come to Joliet to visit my mother. (And in the interest of even fuller disclosure, I served as the youth minister of Maple Lawn Christian Church, Crossroads' predecessor congregation, so I have a pretty good idea what I am talking about.) I was motivated to post on Yelp because Butch B.'s accusation against the congregation and its senior minister spooked my wife. I figured if it held some degree of sway over her, it may affect others -- and I was determined to make a stand on behalf of Crossroads. Thanks for reading.

I am so so disappointed right now I can't even tell you. I asked Pastor dick to do the memorial for…read moremy dad. I literally wrote out everything word for word that I wanted him to say about my dad. Truly all it had to do was be read. it was important to cover all of these memories and talk about the man my dad was obviously. Well. It never happened. Yes he said everyone's name and shared one single story. The one story that makes my dad out to be stupid. None of the stories about his love or his compassion or the way he cared for people. He talked about my dad for maybe 7 minutes and the rest of the memorial was like a church service. Did he forget why he was there? To honor my dad? This was the final farewell to my dad. I honestly felt like standing up with my Kleenex and my tears in my eyes pulling up the email that I sent to him and reading it myself. If I would have had the Constitution to do that. Then I would have. And when I talked to him after all he says is.... your family remains in my prayers. I would never ever recommend this man to do a memorial. Ever. He seems to have no explanation for what he did nor any care about it other than offering prayers. I'm sad and hurt and this was no way to say goodbye to my dad.

I went to school & church here when i was a wee babe, so I'm bias. They've since closed down the…read moreschool but i still make it out to mass every once in a while and I love this church. It's beautiful and old and gaudy, has an old pipe organ perched high in the back balcony, and has become the pillar of what churches are 'supposed' to look like. It's made it so, every time I go into one of those acoustic guitar playing, super modern churches with skylights, my heart aches for this place. Also, i really love that the school was built in a time that "Nailers" would still be considered an acceptable mascot.

The words, "I will go in to the altar of God. To God, the joy of my youth", taken from the Latin Mass came to mind. Of course, this raises the question why there is no Latin Mass in this magnificent house of God. The photographs depict the beauty of this church more than words ever could. This church has a traditional high altar with embedded statues of Saint Joseph and the Blessed Virgin. One could spend hours gazing into the sanctuary at St. Joseph's.

You become family when attending Calvary Church! The Church teaches straight out of the Bible, no less, no more! They do not make up rules and they teach you how to have a RELATIONSHIP with the Lord and not just have religion. I didn't really understand about the Holy Spirit. One evening, I will never be able to explain it, I was TRULY touched by the Holy Spirit at Calvary. I swear I have never felt more deeply in my heart everyday before that evening! I feel at home here and our Pastor makes everything in the Bible more understanding. Please come and visit, you will never want to go to a different Church!

After struggling with my faith for many years and dealing with guilt and mistrust of the Church, I…read moredecided to return to Calvary, the church I used to attend. It has changed immensely, with a new pastor. On the first Sunday I returned, Pastor Marty preached that, "one of his favorite sermons was Jonathan Edwards 'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God'. You should all look it up." This barbaric 18th century sermon is one of the original fire and brimstone, you're all going to Hell sermons. Just what I didn't need while wrestling with intense guilt in my life. The next few Sunday's he regularly pressured and pan-handled about paying HIM 10% of your income (tithe to the local church). Infact, the whole season of Lent was to be dedicated to just this practice. After a few weeks of this, I was reminded of why I was disgusted with church and struggled with Christianity. Of course, I am never returning to that church. If ever there was someone to put in my life to help me deconvert to atheism, Pastor Marty Sloan would be that guy.

I just experienced one of the most arrogant, I suppose you call him "pastor" I've ever witnessed…read more He wasn't teaching from the holy Bible. He was bragging about how great the grass is in his yard compared to other places in America. He was bragging about how the city of Chicago has abundant water while people who love God have to ration water in the Western United States. He falsely claimed that the Chicagoland area is the greatest place in the world, yet it still harbors so many abortion clinics, pornography centers, and countless evils. The church itself is more of a circus, filled with fog machine smoke, theatrical lighting, and all the fakery of a performance rather than service on to God. Along with all of his bragging and arrogance, he also asked people to give him $10 million. My stomach was literally sick from what I saw in this arrogant building housing people who are more interested in texting and looking on their Facebook then what this leader of this organization has to say. Gods people are starving. The lost need saved. But I don't think any of those two things matter to this church.

He is a leader, but I had some difficulties with I asked her to help with my grandchildren's Christmas happiness. She denied me. She told me that my grandchildren were unable to seek a toy. We all know that these are hard times right now and how can anyone deny a child a toy for Christmas? I thought this would be something I because why she is such a Christian hearted person her true beliefs are bias. Against certain nationalities and we saw how often happened to be African-Americans so I guess she doesn't understand a grandmother's need for her grandchildren to have a decent Christmas this year since it's her she's spending I do so hope that the Lord has mercy on her soul..
