This is a great place to go if you want biblically-based teaching and fellowship. I identify as a…read morefairly liberal young person, but I feel comfortable in this space. People here seem to understand that when Jesus said "love your neighbor," he didn't give any exceptions. They have a very large campus, which initially made me think they might be a "megachurch." While it's a big church, there are many small communities within it. They have a ministry for every stage of life: nursery, kids, middle or high schoolers, young adults, married couples, new parents, older people, and general men's and women's groups. The place doesn't feel like a business. It's a faith community that provides a safe space for followers of Jesus, regardless of their other affiliations. I particularly love the Kardia young adult community. They have a lot of ways to get involved and are very friendly, but there's no pressure to do anything in particular. I love that they serve open communion for all Christians, every week, and I love the music. It's contemporary and high quality. They rotate in new songs every once in a while, but they keep things around for a while and bring in classics so you can be familiar with some things. I enjoy the availability of the leadership. You can actually talk to the people in charge every Sunday. The transparency is great, as is the teaching. Typically, the same lead pastor (Des) speaks, but the leadership will keep the community in touch with what's going on in various niches of the church. I respect the way they operate.

Have been church shopping for a few months now and found this church through a friend. Really…read moreenjoyed the worship, and the pastor. There's an incredible amount of young adults that go to their church which was awesome to see. The reason I give only 3 stars is because of the children's ministry. They were super friendly when I was dropping my 2nd grader off for the first time, but when I picked him up, I was bummed to see him sitting alone and no teachers around him. I was a bit late to get him, because I was talking, but I have served at many churches and no matter how late the parents are, the volunteers do not leave the children. He wasn't the last kid picked up and completely alone, but in the 2nd grade "area" it was just him with no adults. Also when we were walking out, the person I gave my tag too kind of ignored us and when I said thanks and goodbye, she just continued to talk to her friends that were nearby. So in a way I felt like people were kind and friendly, but not as welcoming as I hoped for a first time person. Wanting to try the church again and hopefully it will feel different next time.

We have been attending Sun Valley for many years now. You can be as a connected as you want to be…read more There are plenty of opportunities to get involved. The thing that I appreciate the most is that the pastors talk about real life issues to help us as we go through life. The music played here makes you feel like you are in a concert worshiping God if you like the more traditional music they also have that at the 9 o'clock service in another area . They have Bible studies for couples, women, men, celebrate, recovery, financial, peace, university, and reengaged, along with many others.

I tried to make this short, but there are so many things I love about this church! From the moment…read moreI walked in, others made me feel welcome and like I belonged. My faith has grown exponentially since then and I love the community I've built here. The teachings are Biblical and the worship songs have sound theology, but this church is far from traditional (although there is a traditional service offered at 9am on Sundays). The services will keep you awake and wanting to learn more. Another thing I love about this church are the pastors. Chad Moore is an excellent communicator who truly loves and cares about his church, but more importantly, the people that make up the church. He makes up excellent "catch phrases" that will stick in your head and serve as a reminder of the character of God and His Church. Robert Watson will be your favorite if you're a visual learner. He teaches once or twice a series and is great at using physical illustrations to help you remember the main point of his message. Kyle Glenn is the pastor of the Tempe campus and is always eagerly waiting to greet people on Sunday mornings - whether you're new or have been going there for a few years. Kyle is easily one of the most loving and humble I've met and can put a smile on anyone's face. He's compassionate and always puts the needs of the Church over his own. If you are new to church, or have been hurt by a church, this place is definitely the place for you. It isn't small enough to make you feel like you're constantly under surveillance, but it's not too big to the point where you feel lost or lonely. Once you get plugged into a small group or ministry team, you get the sense of a close-knit community that loves each other and loves Jesus.
