Crossroads Church Mason

I can't be the only one that's ever said this. There is no way. PLEASE turn down the music. The vibration rattles windows... I totally agree with praise and rejoicing. I pray daily. The loud music unfortunately makes me have headaches and nausea. Im not the only one. My question is this... As Christians.... Shouldn't you be more considerate of others? Don't you realize that it gets so loud sometimes it has literally vibrated items off of a bathroom vanity? There's no need to be at a rock concert sounding sermon to praise the lord. How does anyone hear anything after being in there? Please.....tone the music down. Its nauseating. Makes me wish it was still the paper factory shut down.

We’ve been going here for about 4 months, and while there’s some positives, there’s also many negatives about this church. The lead pastor is more like an event coordinator. I’ve not once seen him give a sermon. Instead, they pull down the white screen and we watch a prerecorded sermon of another pastor preaching. It doesn’t feel very personable whatsoever. Also, a church this big should offer many more small groups. Instead, we found only around 6-7 different small groups they had to offer. Another thing, is they chose to have a big gathering for new members at a brewery/bar. That right there really rubbed me the wrong way. No church should be gathering at a bar, especially for new members. Setting my history with alcoholism aside, we chose to go regardless, and only stayed for about 20 minutes because we felt so out of place. Not a single pastor/church staff greeted us or made an attempt to welcome us. We’re new to the area, we don’t know anyone, and thought this would be a way to meet new people, but we didn’t. I’m not saying this is a bad church, I’m just saying that I think they make some very questionable decisions, and don’t really make newcomers feel welcomed. Also want to say that I ended up bringing my ear plugs and sunglasses. Earplugs because the music really is extremely loud. They had the news covering this church awhile ago because of complaints from the surrounding neighborhoods. We left a bit early this past Sunday, and I could see why. It’s so incredibly loud from the outside, let alone from the inside. That, and the stage lights are insanely bright. When it shines your way, you literally have to cover your eyes. I feel like this church is more concerned with being the biggest, loudest, flashiest church, than tending to its flock or caring for its community. No thanks.
