Hillsong NYC Review

Awesome experience. Great to see a lot of people especially youngsters at this place worshipping the Lord

Loved the service we went to! Worship was amazing! Service lasted under an hour and a half which was just perfect. Volunteers were all very friendly and helpful. We had several people introduce themselves to us and our kids. We got there about 30 minutes before to wait in line to get in. Message was phenomenal! We walked out feeling so recharged and blessed!

Amazing, feels like home. It's a great travel experience

My husband and I had the privilege of visiting this church several times this year due to my husband job with the Long Island Railroad. I am happy that throughout his contract we were able to make Hillsong our "church home away from church home". Thank you for serving God faithfully!

Extraordinary. Many young people, the atmosphere is of joy, live music with Christian messages. Excellent organization

Wow! Every 2 hours Sunday service between 09.00 and 19.00. Very dedicated, very well attended, a lot of music, a lot of deep bass and a lot of hands to heaven. Sometimes a lot of repetitions of the choruses and a lot of group dynamics.

INCREDIBLE experience. They have a friendly and present welcome team. If you're a first time visitor get there at least 10 minutes early since they have a security check and line before service. Also, if you get there right on time you might have to climb stairs to get to your seat. Phenomenal worship and a service that's around 75 minutes.

Amazing church, amazing worship.
This is in The Manhatten Centre on 34 th Street.
5 services on a Sunday.
Staff/volunteers all very friendly and helpful.

Love the worship and they preach the Word of God. Strong conviction comes from the Holy Spirit through the preaching.

They give you a free Starbucks gift card when you convert. I convert multiple times a week.

great church with a modern feel and inspiring message of the "new birth" life!

This church is where you want to be each week. I recommend strongly!

Hillsong isn't a real church! If your doctrine says that God is here to "empower" man when God created us and as our chief end to worship and praise God, then you have it all wrong. "Pastor" Carl Lentz said that in the Bible (He was using the MSG translation) that we need to "be attentive to individual needs" that part of 1 Thessalonians 5:14 is totally, for sure, 100% made up, as the original Greek translation doesn't say that. If you are currently going to Hillsong I would strongly suggest you leave and go to a different church that has a correct doctrine and uses KJV.(King James Version)

Jesus being preached, the gospel of the Kingdom of God, a must, to praise along with our brothers, spread all over the world.

What a great experience while visiting the big apple!

What they preach on the service is beautiful , you get out of there feeling more hope

Great church, conveniently located across Penn Station. Great pastor, great staff, and does not detract from the real reason of going to church.

I love this place!!! God's presence is notorious and the people who serve there are wonderful too !! Always smiling and always trying to help !!!!

I loved visiting this place, its very friendly servers, praise minister to me a lot

Airport security at the front door, cattle call to a seat, superficial preaching. Worship is very good.

It's big and beautiful. I enjoyed worshipping there

Hillsong NYC is an incredible church to worship Jesus and connect with others.

Simply amazing... touching stories, the true gospel, Jesus in the middle.... hallelujah amen!!

Was great. Just didnt like the fact that my husband is law enforcement and they didnt accumulate him. You never know when you need them. But was very nice esp to see all the young people.

Hillsong is a very good church, with a cool vibe. The population is very young, and the atmosphere is friendly.

Harsh vibe to witness honestly. Too much enforcement on tithe.

I love coming here for the music and worship of God. Their worship is amazing, but this church is filled with too many people trying to be "trendy" and not enough true worshippers. I came to church today and there were kids playing music talking about drugs and alcohol inside the church! I was appalled. I've met some nice volunteers and I volunteered for a day but the community is not here. They are nice on the surface cause that's their job that they're doing. They make you come 90 minutes to the service to just stand around. They spoke to us and told the volunteers where to go which took maybe 10 minutes and then there was nothing else for us to do so we all stood around like we were in high school chatting. I stood around awkward cause I didn't know anyone and no one made me feel comfortable. I pictured volunteering to be way more warm and not just a hey welcome to church but actually trying to get to know each person. Knowing who's coming in broken and reaching that hand out, but I really don't see that here at this church. Some of the pastors do make me laugh and the worship is great. I wish they would get an old pastor one day though. Once I tried sitting on a floor seat once and a volunteer told me I couldn't sit that it was reserved with a nasty so I said okay so where can I sit? She said idk but this is reserved. Very rude. She could have pointed me in the right direction. This church needs some real fixing up.

Beautiful church, you can feel the presence of God there

The church that's too big for comfort and too many services to get really fellowship

Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty!! It is here!

A church where you can praise God greatly and receive a word that catches your heart to love God

Love this place, mostly because of the worship. But it always speaks to me on a deeper level it feels awesome to leave refreshed ready to take on the week.

Hillsong is not a church. It is a social club for self-centered, upper middle class young adults. Do not expect to hear a sermon here. I attended for months and I never felt a spiritual connection. The pastors give nearly identical motivational speeches every week where they drone on about how they would like to encourage you. Meanwhile, if you are ever struggling with a serious problem such as severe depression, you will be completely neglected and forgotten. Hillsong is a social club with hypocritical members who completely ignore those who are not in their cliques.

The message was so powerful. The presence of God was so tangible. So many young people praising God.was amazing to wstch.

Where in the world has the idea of wild rock n roll , amalgamated with Jesus/church ? In the Bible you will find he speaks in a still small voice.

I Do not believe that entertainment is the actual fulfillment that Jesus has to offer.

Welcoming environment, great music and worship environment.

The church is AMAZING! I went there for a Sunday service once and love the experience! It was an event full of energy and enthusiasm from everyone who attended. It was the most organized and highest quality church I have been. Highly recommend it to everyone even if you are not religious. You will feel amazed and welcome!

Hillsong NYC is our home church when we come to visit. Jesus is alive and Gods message is translated into worship through music and Bible. Moving, spirit filling, life giving. We pray Hillsong continues to bring more people to a growing relationship with Jesus.

Great Church, Good Word and a Wonderful Worship Experience! Everyone feels welcome!

Great services! The sermons are always on point for me personally!

Great welcome and easy place to get to. Service was traditional hillsong, full of life, vitality and the Spirit of God. I was pleasantly surprised at the range of ages present, a real encouragement in this early service. A lot was crammed in to the service but it did not feel rushed and the team did well incorporating those who were regular and those visiting.

Smack in the middle of NYC. There s a kids section and You get a free bible when you re a first time visitor. Go early as there s usually a crowd and seats fill up quickly and the ushers are missing in action.

You must come here. Sunday or Wednesday. Its an encounter with God. Music is wonderful, people are wonderful. Life-changing.

Fantastic!!! Cozy, exciting, beautiful music, uplifting word. It's a light that shines very bright in NYC.

The invocation on the last Sunday of 2018, You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance. Psalm 65:11. Message of the day, The blessing ahead is greater than the battle behind! Pastor J.T. Hillsong, NYC.

Church is the translation of the Greek term ekklesia, and is used in the New Testament to identify the community of believers in Jesus Christ. It literally means assembly, congregation, or meeting. A similar term was used in the Old Testament referring to experiences such as the day of the assembly, the Lord s congregation, or meeting before the Lord.

Thus, when Jesus declares: I will build my church (Mt 16:18), it did not come as something unfamiliar to the common listener. Shortly after, in the New Testament, the word is con- fined strictly to refer to the congregation of believers in Jesus Christ.

It is worth mentioning that in the New Testament, no synagogue, temple, chapel, tabernacle, building or any other meeting place was ever called a church. The term always referred to the Christian assembly and, in the New Testament, it was used for both the local community of believers and the overall collection of Christians.

I cried all service, the music is BEAUTIFUL! it feel like a real concert, it's funny because the last time I was at Hammerstein ballroom was to see a Korn and limp Bizkit concert, needless to say that was YEARS ago and I found God now. The pastor was SO RELATABLE. he admitted to being a meek mill fan which made me fall more in love with him. Oh yeah I forgot to mention there was a mosh pit!!! I LOVE THIS CHURCH and will definitely be going back!! FYI come like an hour early to avoid lines and to get a good seat, you can eat and relax before the show...yeah I said show because the music like I said is like a concert! This is perfect for someone who wants a good church but still wants to have fun. New Christian's are SO WELCOME! Love it here!!!!!

Best spot for a worship our God, occur and feel alive

Spectacular worship and amazing service! Everyone must attend at least once! The queue is long but they sort through pretty quick. The songs are as beautiful as the ones we listen to spotify or youtube! A great and fulfilling experience!

Extremely friendly & welcoming.. Loved the vibes & would highly reccomend.
