Basic Info (FAQ's)
Where and when do you meet?
NorthStar currently gathers on Sunday mornings at 10:30 am and Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. at 1604 W. Lee Court in Coeur d'Alene, ID. We also have small groups that we call "Life Groups" that meet throughout CDA and Hayden. To find out when other ministries meet go to the Ministries page.
What are your gatherings like?
Our worship gatherings are casual, relational, and Christ-centered. Our gatherings are also designed with you in mind. Each worship service includes prayer, music and preaching. Most services have other elements such as testimonies, mission moments, scripture reading, drama, special music, etc. Our worship music combines the contemporary music you hear on Christian radio with traditional hymns you might remember from your youth. The preaching is based solely on scripture. Our hope is to worship Christ and reveal his word as passionately and truthfully as possible and to do it in a way that is relevant to our culture.
What about childcare?
We have nursery and children's ministry facilities and programming for children up to 5th grade. (Older children and youth are encouraged to participate in our large group gathering) Your children will be taught God's Word in a fun, clean, safe and friendly environment. There is more info on the Children's Ministry page.
Will I have to do anything, say anything, or be embarrassed in any way?
At NorthStar Church, you can rest assured that you will never be put on the spot, never singled-out, and never embarrassed in any way. You can choose to simply blend in with the crowd and check things out or you may feel free to participate fully in the life of our church.

What kind of church is NorthStar Church?
REAL, RELEVANT, RELATIONAL!
NorthStar Church exists to provide an environment where people can discover and develop their passion for God in a way that is real, relevant, and relational.
We are deeply committed to the eternal truths of the Bible and the Christian faith. The Christian life is a journey and is not meant to be traveled alone. We need each other to learn and grow. Northstar Church is the kind of church where people can walk together on their Christian journey. If you are perfect...NorthStar is NOT for you! We are a church filled with real people, who have real problems. We all have hurts, habits and hangups, but NorthStar is a church that believes in the life-changing power of Jesus Christ to meet us in the midst of those problems.
What denomination is NorthStar Church?
NorthStar Church voluntarily affiliates with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). You might wonder why not just be an independent church? We ARE an independent church! The SBC has no denominational control or hierarchy, as there is in many other denominations. Each church is self-governed and determines its own affairs. The reasons that we affiliate with the SBC are so that we can identify ourselves with other Christians around the world who are known for their commitment to the Bible and so that we can participate in missions with the SBC. The SBC represents over 42,000 churches that worship in dozens of different languages all over North America. Currently, we help support over 10,000 missionaries in 153 countries around the world.
How big is NorthStar?
Do you mean how big is our church or how big is our heart? We usually have between 50 and 100 people at our Sunday morning gatherings. But to see how big we really are, you'll have to come see it for yourself...
