OVER 2600 CHURCHES AND GROWING...

Below you'll find links to just a few of our churches. Hopefully we have a church somewhere near you so that you can begin or continue pursuing the Will of God for your life. Being that we have approximately 2000 churches worldwide, it's highly likely that we have a fellowship church in close proximity to you. If not, don't fret because planting churches is what we do. Hopefully, after you've seen "OUR VISION" (video to the right), you'll see that we're truly living out the Book of Acts in the 21st Century. If you believe that all of the chaos in the world and especially the unrest in the Middle East is leading to the return of Jesus Christ and you want to link up with what is probably one of the most powerful moves of God in the earth today, you've come to the right place...at the right time. We're not looking for high flyers or the celebrity types, just "real people with real problems, seeking help from a Real God". Our fellowship has grown expeditiously over the past 40 plus years by three simple principles; Evangelism! Discipleship! and Church Planting!!! You won't find us on Christian TV or the radio but you will find us in the streets and outreaching in our local communities. That's because we believe that the strength of the saints is developed in the "Local Church" just like those in the Book of Acts. We evangelize to build the local church, we disciple to strengthen the local church and we launch couples who are called to preach into cities throughout the world to establish more local churches. We believe in the Supernatural Power of God to totally change and transform lives regardless how desperate those lives might be. God is in the restoration business and when we align with His plans and purposes for our lives we can see any addiction broken, any mind restored, any marriage healed and any life totally redeemed by The Blood of Jesus Christ. After going over the list of churches at the bottom of this blog, if you don't see any of our fellowship churches near you, simply contact us with a comment to this blog. We will respond with a church address and the Pastor's contact information closest to you. If there isn't a church within close proximity to you...pray...rally your friends and family members to pray...pray that God will raise up a man in our fellowship who is called to preach the Gospel and with God's guidance we will launch him and his wife into your city to establish a work for God. It's our desire to help you but we have to hear from you first. Don't delay...respond with a "comment" (just below) to this blog and we will look forward to seeing what a mighty and powerful work God will do as we link our hearts for His Glory.

Does It Really Matter Where I Go To Church As Long As I Go???

Choosing the right church is as important as choosing the right doctor...but even more so. I would dare say that choosing the right church is one of the most important decisions we'll ever make. While choosing the wrong doctor could easily cost us our health and significantly affect the quality of our life, choosing the wrong church will more than likely affect our spiritual well being and could very well cost us our souls for eternity. Just as the training and perhaps motives of a medical doctor will greatly affect his diagnosis and his treatment of our particular symptoms, so the motives of a pastor will greatly determine how he addresses the issues in our lives. Jesus made a clear distinction between the "hireling" and the "shepherd". He was very concerned about this issue because He witnessed the masses following those whom He clearly defined as hirelings. The question is..."how do we discern the difference"? The Bible clearly states that we are all sinners and it's our sin that separates us from God. Although we may be quick to classify sin as illicit sex, drug use, alcoholism, rape, murder, etc, etc,...when God looks at sin He looks much deeper or rather at the heart conditions such as pride, greed, hatred, jealousy, envy, bitterness deceit, lust and the seeds in our heart that lead to the actual sin. Only the Blood of Jesus can cleanse us of sin but only the preaching of the unadulterated Word of God can keep us free from the bondage of sin. Sin is like weeds. It grows and multiplies with no nurturing whatsoever. When a preacher stands before his congregation and only preaches on how God loves us, how God wants to bless us and how God wants to take us to heaven, it's like watering your grass regularly without ever pulling up the weeds. Eventually your lawn will be overgrown with what??? What else but weeds!!! No matter how much you claim to love God, your heart will lie to you and draw you toward sin (Jer 17:9) which will inevitably separate you from God. When a pastor is a true shepherd he recognizes this fact and allies himself with the Spirit of God by using the Word of God to help the people of God not only get free but continually confront and eradicate the sin in our lives. He realizes that although God loves us...He hates our sin. He wants to bless us but He will judge our sin. He wants to take us to heaven but He will send us to hell if we insist on living in sin. At our church we love God because we believe in God's unconditional, radical and unwavering love for us. We believe that JESUS IS GOD. We also affirm that you may or may not believe that Jesus is God. We're not asking you to change your belief system before you attend our church. We're simply inviting you on a journey toward Jesus. For years churches have placed a high priority on Jesus as a "get-out-of-hell-free-card". At our church we place the highest priority on Jesus as a live-life-to-the-fullest invitation. We believe every person has a dream deep inside their hearts and that God put that dream there, not for our glory, but for His. We're not concerned where you've been, but where you're going. We believe that THE BIBLE IS GOD'S WORD...It's REAL...It's ALIVE...and It's ACTIVE!!! We believe that people that don't go to church anywhere are not the enemy. They are real people that need the PERFECT LOVE that only God can give. We believe that God gives this love through...of all people..."us". At our church we do not and will not display a holier-than-thou attitude toward anyone. We are all broken people but He is putting us back together. And finally and most importantly...we believe that Jesus Really Lived and He Really Died On The Cross and that He Really Rose On The Third Day and we cannot and we will not candy coat or water down that message...EVER!!! We hope that you're brave enough to come and sit through a potentially dangerous message that can truly...Radically Revolutionize Your Life...and rest assured...you're always welcome at our church!!!
