Verde Valley Christian Church

Had the privilege of attending this church on 2/11/24 and enjoyed it. My wife and I travel around looking for churches who are military and first responder friendly, and here's our review of VVCC:
Pro's - Sanctuary was well organized, clean, and peaceful. Everyone seemed to be quite friendly without appearing cliquish. We sat towards the front, so we didn't get to experience what the back of the church was like. From where we were sitting there didn't seem to be any distractions. We felt safe and welcome. There were a lot of opportunities to plug in, a bunch of activities, etc. The Pastor was cool, calm, and collected. The praise and worship band played modern Christian church music.

Con's - The Pastor seemed to be more of an educator than a preacher, which is good if you're new to the faith and want to learn. The specific message was spun around recruiting more children workers, which I can appreciate. We all need to invest in the next generation! Unfortunately, we weren't stimulated, convicted, or educated by his message. That doesn't mean others weren't either though. The praise and worship team appeared to be holding back. I confirmed this with a source before putting together this review and was told that the first service is normally that way for the older generation (which I definitely appreciate and value - this should actually be a Pro, but it was a Con for me because my current spiritual walk is about being adventurous and excited).

At the end of the day, we give VVCC a 5-Star. It felt safe, friendly, and respectful. There were no unnecessary distractions and things ran very smoothly. We understand that some anomalies may exist and always recommend you checking things out for yourself. If your first visit doesn't go well, try attending two more times before making a decision.

Respectfully,
Dr. Burke

We have been a part of this church over 10 years!
We love the people & Pastor Jim Hammond! Our children look forward to coming every Sunday! We are blessed to have a second family at VVCC!

When I visit from California I appreciate being able to attend this church. It is a beautiful and welcoming environment and a place to confidently hear the truth of God's word. I experience sharing the love of Jesus through my fellow believers there.

Love this church. Motto is from where ever you are to where God wants you to be. All are welcome.

This place is incredible! When I walked in here, I could tell that there's a lot of dedicated people investing their time into this church so that it could be successful. From the sandwich boards out on the street, to the parking lot greeter, to the door greeter, to the sanctuary greeter, and to the hot pot of coffee and assortment of snacks—this place has a lot of love pouring out from it. I've already been here a few times, and the Message is Bible-based and delivered with a salted tongue. Great children's ministry, too! Can't forget the children's ministry.
👊🤘

I love this body! They have several mission statements, but the one that resonates the most is DON'T DO LIFE ALONE... it's so loving!

I love this church. We visited one time after finding them on Facebook. We've attended ever since and that was almost four years ago. The music is top notch and current. The teaching is direct, but presented in a loving way. They have a great kids program. The church is full of sweet folks who welcome everyone with open arms. The age range is very broad and there is something for everyone. Snacks and coffee are provided at the beginning and end of every service. There are three services every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, and 11am.

This is a beautiful facility. Not only a wonderful place to worship but the staff really make you feel welcome. Music is great and teachings touch my heart every time. The casual atmosphere of "come as you are" makes the church welcome to everyone regardless of where you are in life.

Like many ppl, this was were I headed for my second covid vaccine. It was clean, well organized and the vaccination clinic was well run. One thing to note...the entrance into the building for the vaccination clinic is down the side street and round the back, follow the chain link fence all the way down and turn left.

an excellent non-denominational Christian church with a pastoral staff of thoughtful, dedicated Pastors. Attendance is high with a nice mix of young families and older followers of Christ. The worship program is outstanding and led by David Lockhart...Senior Pastor, Jim Hammond delivers the message thoughtfully and easily understood.

First time visiting this church. I loved the atmosphere, music and the message from Pastor Doug. I will definitely be going back to VVCC 👍👍

I attended for a short time while working in the area in 2011. Since then I listen on line whenever I wish to. There is a catalog of good messages from all the Pastors there, so for me it is one church I continue to grow spiritually with and will always say that I bless and encouraged by God thru their service to Him. This is now January 2019.

My husband's grand daughter attended vacation Bible school last week and really enjoyed it. Wonderful fun way for the kids to learn more about Jesus!

It’s simple really. 5 stars because it’s where the Holy Spirit led me to go.
Now that I do attend my wife goes, the kids go, the neighbors go and they now invite others.
So if your looking for a bible base church that believes that the word of God is infallible come and worship the Lord God our creator with us please.

Professional and very well organized. Thank you to Fema, our health care workers, our local fire departments, and all who helped get our vaccines to us. We are forever thankful and appreciative to all.

Pastor Jim is very passionate about speaking the word of God. He is very thorough and detailed. Everyone was very welcoming.

A great place to go and worship on Sunday. Everyone is super friendly and the sermons are very informative, along with music that rocks. A great way to learn about God and his son Jesus.

Their days and days of on site vaccinations is making it easy for this church to return to in person services. Good music and Great sermons.

Thank you to the church for letting the public use their facilities for the vaccine shots. Everything went very well and I didn't see even one dissatisfied person. Thanks again 🙂

Loud, live gospel band start the service. Pastor Jim is good, & easily approachable. Very knowledgeable about the word of God. And filled with the Spirit.
