Podcast Description
Willow Creek Community Church holds to a core belief that people matter to God. They matter to us, too. With an understanding that Jesus Christ came to earth to seek and to save that which was lost (Luke 19:10), But Jesus went beyond a mere rescue mission; he transformed lives. Jesus came to redeem this broken world, and it is on this core belief that Willow has built its mission statement: to turn irreligious people into fully devoted followers of Christ. Willow is committed to carrying on Christ's mission by reaching out to those who are far from God, coaching those who follow Christ by equipping them for their spiritual journey, and unleashing unprecedented levels of compassion and justice into our broken world. Weekend messages are a key component in reach out to others and encouraging and inspiring them along their spiritual journey.

Customer Reviews
Great resource to grow with and share
I used to attend this church until I moved out of state (bummer). BUT, I stay connected by viewing their services online. It's very much a transformational church due to the fact that they take the Word and say, "This is what God says and this is how we're going to do it" without sugarcoating or watering down the goodness and true intention of the Word. I highly recommend visiting their church if you're ever in the Chicagoland area. It's a "come as you are church," so no jeans are too torn and no sin is too big, they are just happy you're there. Like I stated in the title, it's a great way to also share with someone who is either seeking or curious or someone who is going through a very similar struggle to the message.
WillowCreek...Its a God Thing
As a fellow "Creeker" of 10+ yrs, I can't say enough good about my church. I started going as a broken, hurting, lost sinner, who really didn't care about anyone but me. As I listened to more messages week after week, God began to work into me more and more. Once I found the Single Parents Ministry... I knew this is where i belonged. I came to realize that life was not all about me. I started serving in the Single Parents Ministry, and my spiritual life just exploded in growth. I am living proof that a lost sinner can get his life turned around with Gods help. If you are curious, if you don't know where to turn, if you want to make a bunch of new Good friends, Stop by WillowCreek Community Church. Services are 5:30 pm on Saturday and 9:00 am and 11:15 on Sunday. You have nothing to loose... Only more to gain. For more info call 847-765-5000. I wrote this review on my own cuz I lived thru hell and back and I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for God, my church, it's members, and it's support. Thanks Willow :) ~Matt W.
Willow Creek Podcasts! Awesome!!!
I have been attending the Willow Creek Service for about six month until I had to leave the USA to move back to Germany. In my whole year that I spent in the States this church and their people had an enourmos impact on my life! This is the most incredible church I have ever visited and after only six months I share their vision, determination and values. The messages that you will find here are not watered or dummbed down. They are the truth about what God wants to say to us through his Word... it's simply awesome :)
