Our church split because of his indiscretions and our assistant pastor, Gary Howard took the split and has done well.
Judy and Terry were into some weird stuff when they pastored in Tulsa.They would have everyone throw up into bags to get rid of bad spirits,attitudes or something bad.I believe they quit that stuff.I hope they are doing well but don't agree with their beliefs.

Wow are you sure that you are talking about the same Crist Family???
I was a member of WORD OF GRACE under paster Gary Kidman, and the church merged with CITY CHURCH. They decided to combine the names and call the church City Of Grace. I am still a Very active member of this church.
Let me share something that is just known in the church but is not talked about on the web that much. Yes the Mission of the Church is to LOVE PEOPLE TO LIFE, but a definite underlining mission that was taught by Gary for years and is still deeply ingrained in the church is, "JESUS PLUS NOTHING". Truth be told this is how i live my life still to this day. I see a bunch of people bickering about how words on a website were formed. COME ON.......
I love the Crist's and i know that they have changed.....you will never catch me doing that.... DEAD OR ALIVE.
Terry has talked about the change that they have gone through sometimes at church but i can tell that they are guarded... and this might be one of the reasons why. if you can check out a pod cast GREAT stuff it has changed my life.
As a church boy chewing on the back of a pew as a child i grew up in Pentecostal church on the east cost. when i moved to Arizona i was 4 square for a while then Baptist.... ya thats a flip. When i turned 16 i left God and the church and never wanted any thing to do with church EVER again... Drugs, Alcohol, and other destructive behavior became part of my life. This is what Denomination does... DESTROYS the message of Jesus and what he came for. I will say it again JESUS PLUS NOTHING, JESUS PLUS NOTHING, JESUS PLUS NOTHING.
This is what you will learn at this church.... come by i will save you a seat 10 in the front of the church.... well second row.
Well i feel better 'bout you???
