What visitors say
Pastors 17 year old son gave a rambling sermon on Sunday that was juvenile and lacking any depth, investigation, or seemingly understanding beyond basic reading comprehension. Rather than any call towards kindness, community care, or Christ like action, the entire sermon was, if you’ll pardon the expression, preaching to the choir. No depth, no scriptural understanding, no actual engagement with the text. Deeply disappointing and will not be returning. Over the past year, I’ve felt God opening my eyes and heart and opening doors for me to explore my faith. I found Trinity Church in the Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago through a Google search. I knew I wanted a nondenominational church that focused on biblically accurate teaching. As I had not been in a church in the 27 years since leaving the Catholic church I grew up in, I was a little intimidated by the idea of walking into a completely new place where I didn’t know anyone. For the first few months I would attend by joining the online livestreams. I enjoyed pastor Matt’s heartfelt, inspirational, and motivating sermons. I was encouraged to join a small group, which seems odd considering I still had not attended church in person. On the first day of that small group, I was warmly welcomed by pastor Matt and his family. I was immediately put at ease, and I found everyone there to be so warm, friendly, and passionate about Jesus. I committed to attending the following Sunday in person at the church. I don’t know why I waited so long. Everyone was beyond friendly, helpful, and genuinely interested in getting to know me and help me get back on track with following Jesus. I was eventually baptized at Trinity Church on Easter Sunday, which I think was very special that it ocurred on that day. I also completed the church’s Growth Track to become an official member of the church. I’ve continued to attend Sundays and small groups each semester. I have learned from and shared with so many amazing people here. The worship is incredible as well. There is so much energy in the room, which didn’t happen at the church I grew up in. There are a number of regular events the church hosts for you to be a part of the community - from volunteering to hot dog fundraisers to men’s and women’s retreats. Plenty of opportunities to fellowship with other believers. Jesus, through using Trinity Church, has changed my life in so many positive ways. I really do love this place. Like most people, I found Trinity Church Chicago by doing an online search. I thought I would finally leave my own review after 7 years. Overall, if you’re looking for a true, Jesus-seeking, Bible-teaching, non-denominational church in Chicago, I highly recommend checking out Trinity Church. No church is perfect, but Trinity seeks to follow Jesus unapologetically. It’s a church to call home, a church that will challenge you to grow, a church that is a deeper community, and a church that wants to welcome all but challenge everyone to live like Jesus. If you’re looking for a church environment where you can slip in and slip out unnoticed every week, you won’t find that at Trinity. You can maybe manage that for a few weeks if you purposefully avoid eye contact with people, but eventually someone will get your attention and want to welcome you into conversation. Give in! You will love the community here. I still remember the first person I met when I walked in the door 7 years ago. (Thanks, Dom!) Also, I met my wife at Trinity, got married at Trinity, experienced many of life’s ups and downs with the community here, and I made many lifelong friends at Trinity. I’m so glad I found this church. Please visit in person if you’re interested in finding a Chicago church! Trinity is also a charismatic church, if that is something that you’re looking for. If you’re not sure what that means exactly in the church context, don’t let that keep you away, just ask the pastor or one of the church members and they’d be happy to explain what they mean by charismatic. the music chosen good! 👍🏼 the small groups awesome! the communication to get in a small group, the locations of where the small group was going to be at were good. The times for small group were satisfying because they were not all in the evening they had morning times available to. the presentations that Matt gives as examples of testimonies and of what God is trying to tell us with examples of famous people and of random people that went through a life changing and through an experience of the bible, of God, of any bible verses and of anything that happened in the bible are perfect and are understanding. A kid's class is great and awesome to have and this church has it! 🙂 the prayer and fasting days and days to get together for that is very good. The member thing is good to. Having thing's available where I can help like for example cleaning, ushering, welcoming, greeting, kids ministry and other things is great. The prison thing to help prisoners is great to. The time that took Dawn to text me back for baptism interest was perfect! it did not take long.... the having pastors from other churches visit the church and preach at the church is great. Edit— If you stop coming here for a while for whatever reason that may be, these people do not check up on you or care about you. You might think they do but they don’t. Been coming here since March, and I really love this church. Was always skeptical when it came to finding a new first church. But These are people you can call your brothers and sisters in Christ. Very welcoming and genuine and they love Jesus. Everyone isn’t perfect including me. But you can tell that these folks have a longing in their hearts to try to follow and obey Him. To love everyone the way God loves us.
