We are not in fellowship with any groups. With only a few exceptions we go through the bible book by book, chapter by chapter, and verse by verse each week so don't bring in outside speakers or for that matter guest singers.
It is not that we don't approve of or like other groups. In fact something we are having to deal with now is that because of the churches tremendous growth (from a handful of people to averaging around 1,600 per weekend over four services in six yearsI) we have a lot of groups and ministries that want to "partner" with our church.
We aim to remain focused on "Authentic Worship, Authentic Community, and Authentic Community Service" Going through the bible word for word, mid week Life Groups, Experience University, 5000 Ministry (we feed 150-200 homeless people a hot breakfast every Saturday and Sunday morning in the park), BAR ministry (on a weekend night setting up outside bars and offering hot coffee and hot dogs to help sober people up, support for various foreign missions and three domestic churches the pastoral team picked out that are in the northeast and largely unchurched areas.
