New City Fellowship of Grand Rapids is a good church. It is a mission work of the Orthodox…read morePresbyterian Church, pastored by Mika Edmonson who is a young and animated guy. I hear the gospel every single time I visit New City. Unfortunately, I often have to wade through a bunch of watered-down silliness before I hear the gospel. There are way too many performance elements. No one likes feeling like they are the audience at a school assembly. There isn't much feeling of the sacred here. The songs are all powerpoint and praise music, which I find inaccesible (and even sometimes theologically incorrect). I wish New City Fellowship would develop and embrace a Reformed identity, because it would be exceptional if they could only combine the love and passion they already have with Biblical worship.

New City is a lovely church. The harsh reviews are over the top considering this church is barely 2…read moreyears old! It does not lead with multiculturalism or cultural Reformed-ness. Rather it leads with Jesus Christ, savior and Lord. Christ is preached from every text during the sermons. The pastors are well-trained theologically but instead of showing how smart they are with esoteric and aloof rhetoric they teach simply. The lead pastor strives to reach everyone God sends to the church with clear and passionate messages. The messages are passionate because when you are a sinner who has been saved by grace emotion is inevitable. New City is far from a theatrical church but it does make room for culturally diverse expressions of praise. The members and visitors are diverse and includes students, college professors, formerly homeless or incarcerated individuals, children, and those who use English as their second language. The harsh reviews are likely from "culturally" Reformed people who find more comfort in churches that would strive to maintain homogeneity instead of serving all people. If you are white and are annoyed by any church that does not cater to your cultural identity, this church will not fit for you. As a matter of fact it will drive you crazy which is probably exactly what you need in order to make sure that you are worshipping the God of the bible and not the "American middle class Jesus". The church serves a meal every Sunday in order to support intentional fellowship. The church is also mindful of the college students and the working poor who are especially blessed by this meal. The music is designed to help ALL people come together and worship God. You will hear a mix of traditional hymns, contemporary Christian, and traditional Black Gospel music. If you are at a multicultural church and you like every bit of it.....its not multicultural. Its simply a place that caters to your preferences.
