North Way Christian Community - Wexford 12121 Perry Highway, Wexford, PA 15090

"Pros: Northway is a great church with many opportunities and ministries available for all ages. The music is outstanding and services are transforming. Greeters and ushers are extremely welcoming and the prayer teams after service do a nice job. The safety team does a great job at protecting the campus at all times and I felt extremely safe going to Northway. Cons: The church statement and beliefs. Northway is a great church overall, but I confess we left extremely hurt. Everything was going well until we asked the Wexford campus pastor, Ryan Paskey to marry us. If you want to get married there, don’t live together before marriage-my fiancée and I didn’t realize this. We didn’t know this was frowned upon with living together before marriage under the same roof. We were uneducated. Pastor Ryan refused to marry us unless we either (A.) moved the wedding date to the next week or (B.) he said we would have to move out of our home together, live apart and wait till our wedding date to move back in together. In addition to moving out, the Wexford Pastor said if we continued to live together, we both must resign immediately and give up our leadership positions within the church. There’s a leadership covenant that you are expected to sign and we had no idea about this. This was never communicated till we approached the Wexford pastor. The last thing Paskey said that hurt the most was how the man needs to run the house and be in charge and women have 0 power and must be homemakers. Otherwise God was not present in our home. Remember that speech the Kansas City Chiefs kicker gave? That’s what Northway believes and how the Wexford preacher spoke to us. Also, they don’t remember you since it’s a mega church and forget the new people. With all this being said, we stepped away and found a new church home thankfully. We were deeply hurt, confused, angry and disappointed. We believe God wasn’t angry at us. We forgive pastor Ryan, but we highly disagree with the views he displayed. We felt compelled to write this review to prevent others from making the same mistakes we did. We will respect Northway, the staff and the people for who they are, but we highly disagree with the views and church statement of values. We wish them all the best moving forward. We just don’t plan to attend there unless serious changes of modernization are made."

"The service itself was okay if you are into more musical and liberal services with the arm raising and such. What really got me was the churches response to faiths slightly different from what they teach. I am there to learn about the lord not to be judged for learning about different faiths to make the best choice for myself. Do not plan on returning."

"North Way is a horrible church, filled with mean, hateful, and narcissistic people…. Their pastor from the Oakland campus was found to be stealing from the church… Instead of pressing charges they let it go saying that he was “a good man”…. Really a good Christian that steals from his church wow? At the end of the day North Way is just a business trying to be capitalistic. They claim to “believe” that their goal is to reach 1% of the Pittsburgh metro… Why? So more people will pay tithe of course… That way Scott can have a bigger house and a bigger salary…"

"We took our son and his girlfriend to the Feb. 2, 2019 service. The greeters made us feel very welcome. Worship was awesome. I love that the man playing the keyboard was obedient to the voice of the Lord, it spoke to us. The sermon about how sometimes we need to hurt to have a closer walk, we do not suffer for Him in this country. I'm so grateful for the pastor. I did have the opportunity to look him in the eye and tell him good preaching. God spoke to me about this church three years ago. We drive 200 miles to take our son who lives there to church. I believe God is doing a great work there and this church will help him to learn move about our living God! Hallelujah!"
