The staff here are fake! They make snide comments as they walk past people in the halls amd office. NOT a very Christian environment of forgiveness and grace. I felt like a second class citizen while here working and trying very hard to provide a service for them.
We have gone to this church several times. My wife and I along with our 3 children(ages 10 boy, 6 girl, and 3 month boy) We all love it so much! The children have their own rooms to go to for class. They are always so excited to go. And so full of stories and energy when we pick them up. Everyone is so helpful and nice! Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a church that doesnt mind a big church. I am a small town guy and have always attended small churches. I was worried and intimidating by the size of this church but its so much fun.
This is a wonderful church for so many reasons however, our frustrations are with the worship. It is difficult to praise God and move deep into His presence when the worship team plays only 3 songs, and then they interrupt that after playing the first song for announcements. If you enjoy worship, this is not the best place to be however, if you seek His word, come here. Mark is PhD level and it is if God is speaking directly to our hearts every week. Mark has a true gift of taking the Word and, through his personal life experiences, breaks it down to how we not only understand, but realize how it works in our own lives. Great worship teams, child care centers and many ways to meet new believers this place of worship has much to offer.
If what you're seeking in a church is a "feel good" message, Newspring is NOT for you. Pastor Mark preaches from the Bible and takes II Timothy 3:16 literally. It doesn't matter where you've been, it only matters where you're going. Newspring has got it going on!!
Newspring is an amazing church that welcomes everyone. The praise team ignites a passion for worship and the messages are honest and relevant. The children's ministry is phenomenal! Each age group has a focused curriculum that is unique to their age for comprehension and engagement. All of the staff and volunteers have a passion for God and it is evident from the time you drive your car on campus.
Big church, but very friendly and welcoming feel. Preaching the Gospel as written, and truly with a vision to reach all walks of life!
I love this church. I may not know everybody. I never had one bad experience. Each worship team, is great from the volunteers to the music. Everyone is so nice. I just would like to make a friendship connection through church for extra support.
Mark Hoover is the best communicator I've ever heard. My husband and I have been attending New Spring for a year and a half. We have yet to meet Mark Hoover in person, but love his messages. New Spring is very friendly and organized! Love it there!
Awesome chrich and they go way out to make the kidos understand!!!
Didn't make the service this week but watched it live. Thought it was an awesome message. One that I kno so many people could relate to. Thanxsee u next week
Very modern style of musical worship (light show, fog machines, mostly electric instruments) which is very good, for certain preferences of style of worship. The message delivered is almost always fantastic, and applicable to every day living. Overall, a great experience if this is your style of church.
Judgement House was great when we went a few years ago. Tried to go to a service there but had to leave when I became nauseous. Cigarette smoke makes some nauseouscoffee does the same thing to me. Coffee is even allowed in the sanctuary i couldn't get away from it. Had heard so many good things about the church I really wanted to try it. Sadly, most every church has turned into a coffee house it seems
This church has changed my life. Pastor Mark is very gifted in the way he teaches. I can hardly ever wait for the next service.
