We have been attending here for over 3 years, and I can say that my family and I have found our people here. I have been able to grow in my faith with meaningful messages and intentional community. They are really family friendly. We have two kiddos (4 & 8) and they love going to kids church, where they have age appropriate teachings and get to connect with friends. You can also keep your kids in the service (some folks do!) if you or they are more comfortable with that. They have free coffee & donuts every week so if you're running late don't worry about grabbing coffee before you leave. If you're looking for a welcoming and family friendly church, this is the one!!

Personally, I love that the kids' church has a curriculum to it where the little ones can get involved and begin learning about Jesus. It's way more than just a place for kids to hang around during service. They get involved in the message and learn how to apply scripture to every day. Adult service is amazing. Pastors Dan and Abigail do an amazing job teaching. They have a real passion for what they do, and it shows in whatever that week's message is. 10 stars if I could. 10am on Sundays at the Centre. Coffee's always on. Come on down, grab a cup, and stay awhile. You'll be glad you did.

The philosophy of this church and the way in which they embrace everyone who enters is just really neat to see. We came from a huge church, searching for a closer group of folks to do life with and we found it. The teachings are relevant, biblical and man, do they sometimes really hit home. The music is great as well. Led Zeppelin, Mumford and Sons, The Avett Brothers, The National, classic hymns and more.... you really can't go wrong with the genres of music they incorporate into the services. I would love to see people let loose a little bit more but that's my own personal issue and relationship with music - don't judge. The children's church is great and the kids always leave with a verse and a cute project. They have made friends and don't pitch a fit when it's time to go - can I get an Amen?! They have volleyball teams, a wine event to benefit a great ministry, support local schools, do trivia nights and so much more. I highly recommend visiting and if you need a friend to go with, send me a "hey girl, hey"!

Non-denominational, our Pastors preach from the Bible. Our music is varied with both hymns and contemporary Christian songs.

Why does a man who lives in Highland Park give this church a low rating? Has he ever even been in our church? I don't care what Mike Pence adheres to or anything about Trump. What does that have to do with Grace Evangelical Church of Elgin, IL?

Pastor Jeff Bucknam delivered one of the best Easter sermons I've ever heard today!…read more Harvest Bible Chapel is not perfect (and no church is) and it has had a challenging past (not unlike most churches), but where it is at today is aligned with the purpose it began with... biblically centered teaching. Watch some of the sermons online and you'll see what we experience live... line by line teaching of the Bible. Pastor Jeff specifically includes relatable personal stories and while he's humble, he does not refrain from challenging the congregation and offing an unapologetic view of scripture. We are working on getting connected into a small group and would eventually like to serve, and one of the things that could be better is the connection center at the end of services. I know the team is short on volunteers, but I have had the chance to meet a few people. We also feel comfortable here because there is a little more diversity than some of the other churches in the area. There are also a ton of programs for children, both during service and throughout the year, like summer camps and youth ministries. Choosing a church is very personal and sometimes, larger congregations get a bad rap. I think that HBC is on the upswing, so stop by and check it out for yourself!

Christ Community Church receives substantial financial contributions from its congregation. Enough…read moreto install a $40 million prayer path, send millions overseas and millions to adopt other churches. However, during major crises affecting members in its own backyard, the response consists of verbal expressions of "walking alongside you," without desperately needed material assistance. In every service, Christ Community Church dedicates a specific prayer to encourage giving directly to the church. Yet they do not help their very own members. Members=wallets. Additionally, the pastors frequently express support for globalism and anti-white rhetoric, which contrasts with biblical passages such as the Tower of Babel account (Genesis 11), where God disperses humanity and confounds languages. The Great Commission instructs believers to "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19), emphasizing outreach across distinct peoples rather than the merging of nations into a single entity or the erosion of national boundaries to facilitate a unified global system. Christ Community is a seeker-church. Discipleship does not go deep. In fact, Pastor Clayton Keenon believes the Garden of Eden existed alongside preexisting civilizations. This interpretation breaks the doctrine of original sin and the gospel itself. This man has no business leading anyone, let alone the thousands that attend Christ Community campuses. This undermines the authority of Scripture and opens the door to further compromises. Perhaps this heresy is why Christ Community's doesn't have a pulpit, but rather a stage. If you're looking for an entertainment church, this is the place. If you're looking to grow in biblical truth and knowledge, look elsewhere.
