Here is a confession: I am what is known as a serial church hopper…read more I have actually attended services here before but found myself trying to find a location that was closer to my house at the time. My boyfriend's, mother lives in Chesapeake and we live on the opposite ends of town so... C.C location was perfectly located in the middle. C.C is non-denominational but still has traditional values. I would describe the church as casual and friendly. Services are held @ 9 and 11am on Sundays. I actually attended last Sunday and found that the message really hit close to home. As a church hopper I think I found my place to call my church home.... for now. Thinking about joining a weekly small group, which would be a first for me! XOXO

I love that the pastoral team takes the time to connect and get to know their memebers, and that there is a charge to get members involved. Lastly, Salah Sundays are the best because they allow volunteers to have time with family.

I attended their Christmas morning service as a guest with a friend, and I was really impacted by…read morethe pastor's message. So timely, and his delivery was very passionate. I noticed myself giving the "thats's right," "amen," and "c'mon now, preach" quite often, accompanied with appropriate head nod and hand clap ;) We missed the beginning part of the praise and worship, but from the closing Christmas song they did, I imagine it's wonderful. Full band with it's own brass session? Always appreciated. And the lead singer's voice was beautiful. The church houses a predominantly black congregation, although the atmosphere is unusually casual. A refreshing deviation from the "Sunday's Best" style accustomed to many of the black and southern churches I've been to in the past. Not that either is better - I just like my jeans and sneakers. The inside of the building mirrors something similar to a cross between a gym and an industrial building. Nothing you would call modern by any means, but definitely large enough to hold a good capacity of people. We sat in the balcony, which was a little bit of a drag because I had difficulty hearing at certain points in the sermon. Adding a few monitors upstairs could be an easy fix for this problem, however. And probably my main suggestion for improvement. All in all, I enjoyed my worship experience at C3 (as they call it). If and when I'm ever back visiting in Hampton for the weekend, I'll be sure to stop in again.

If you are looking to continue pursuing sorority and/or fraternity life complete with a set of…read morevalues that do NOT honor Jesus, the Christ, the one and only Son of the Living God then this is your ideal clique; I won't call it a church. However, if you are seeking Christ, seeking to grow in Him as the Scriptures say "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, Who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God. Bur made himself of no reputation, and took on the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men. And being found in fashion as man HE humbled Himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Therefore, GOD has highly exalted HIM and given Him a name which is above every name; that at THE NAME OF JESUS every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God the Father." AMEN! and AMEN! However, if you just want to check religion off your resumé .....I think you get the message. Study Isaiah 53 along with this passage in Philipians 2:5-11. Time is getting short and the days are getting darker. Along with Joshua as he crossed over the Jordan river my confession is this: "Choose this day whom you shall serve. As for me and my house we shall serve the Lord."

What impacted my family most wasn't any single exchange, but a pattern of leadership that consistently met concern with dismissal and a noticeable lack of empathy. Pastor Grant remains, to this day, unwilling to engage with my family as we are still navigating the aftermath of an abusive situation that occurred within the building itself. Pastor Scott, frankly, is his own case study- someone who seems to treat criticism of systemic sexism not as an invitation to reflect, but as something to personify in real time. Pastor Doug, despite serving as the pastoral care pastor, consistently left us feeling more alienated rather than supported. In the role specifically meant to provide care, safety, and discretion, the experience instead felt guided or influenced by other leadership voices in a way that raised serious concerns for us about independent pastoral judgment. We also experienced what we believe were multiple breaches of confidentiality, which deeply damaged any remaining sense of trust. And when it came to how the original situation was ultimately rationalized, we were left with the message that it was simply "boys will be boys"- a framing that felt dismissive of the harm we experienced and deeply minimizing of what had occurred. No church is perfect, but it should also not be a place where people leave feeling further harmed for naming hurt or seeking care.

Before I give my review, I wanted to address the pure ignorance in a comment/review from "Rich T…read moreCosta Mesa, CA"... so many things to address: #1) I did not know that we are to walk around announcing ourselves as "New Testament Christians" and "Old Testament Chrsitians," that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard and is baseless, but is practically the defense the reviewer is using to mask envy for God's presence in this church. We are ONE Christian Body of Christ, learning the entire book. #2) God told them, "You must without fail give a tenth ["tithe," KJV] of everything your seed produces in the field year by year," which by my calculation is 10%-- Deut. 14:22. #3) I was very involved with this church from 2006- late 2009 before I moved away, yet was born again and saved from the ministry of this church; it is my foundation and in my heart ever since but I tithed what I could, when I could, and God made a way for them through other tithers and they expanded to the new building BECAUSE we had no more room for people lol. I am family because everyone is family at CCNN but by genealogy or DNA I am not related whatsoever. I praised the Lord on the worship team and am so blessed to have felt close to every member whom treated me like family. #5) What a TESTAMENT TO PASTOR TONY that his wife or any literal family member who attends this ministry, or helps out, who shows up because what would it say about PT's work delivering the word if they didnt!! The audacity to call God's calling amongst any of his family to serve, as nepotism. The assumption is ignorance and tells me this reviewer never attended but a few times or less. The concentration of this reviewer was not on praise for Jesus, not for thanks and glory to God, not for ears to hear, not with an open heart to be in discipleship and not with desire in learning scripture, but to judge with probable racism and opinion as a confused "Old Testament Christian" who did not read Deuteronomy in the Old Testament. My review is, the staff is humble and God-fearing. They seek to know Him like an everlasting hunt as we all should. The congregation are kind stewards and believers, many have come to know Christ and Amen for that! There is an entire kingdom daycare for the children per age group and they are taught, and ministries for teens. Calvary Chapel Newport News is the ideal church and business model rooted and covered with the blood of Jesus and we should have many more locations per state as I now live in Michigan and wish that church was here! I am proud to have started my walk CORRECTLY as a member here and I continue to watch Live online. Pastor Tony Clark and his amazing wife Jenise are anointed and chosen and have pure hearts compelled to serve God's people from the start of their living room to almost 5 services every Sunday, but God is good and made a way, growing his fishbowl to 4 services or a bigger building as righteously deserved in 30 years service. We pay for good food at restaurants, and similarly we tithed for good service!! Do not be deceived and please trust that CCNN will be your home, your family, and will be a place you can draw closer to God more than any other church in Virginia. They really do Reach In, Reach Up, Reach Around, and Reach Out. I won't be quiet, My God is alive in this church, so defend I must Sincerely, Taryn Bruce
