Q: What do you have that so many other churches don't have?
A: Each fellowship is unique in its own right. In order to find out what we have that others don’t, I invite you to come and see. Ron Mehl, the pastor of this church for many years (who died in 2003), built the church on a solid foundation of love of Christ and of one another. Randy Remington, our current pastor, does the same. There are many people who call our church their home fellowship because they want to do church together. We are a large church, yes, but we are a church of small groups in many ways. Many members of the congregation serve together within the setting here.
There are many other good churches in the area that also worship Jesus Christ, each in their own way. They have different styles of worship, or liturgy, or doctrinal distinctions. We may be one of the largest churches in the area, but each of these Christ-worshipping church communities serves the same God and we stand with them and do many things together, like the Compassion Clinic we did in October.
Churches aren’t full of perfect people, but forgiven people. Forgiven people have more than just war scars, we have continued brokenness in need of more forgiveness. God expects us to love each other anyway, and we earnestly try to be gracious to one another and to please Him in doing so. We hope that our gatherings are places where such people can grow with one another and to abide in Christ.

I'm new to B4square but I can tell you why it is unique - I have been telling everyone who will listen! this is a place where christian living actually happens. action. results. ministry. growth. fruit. the sign out front here says it all: it is a spirit-filled fellowship. the spirit flows out from this place and its people. and ya know what? since i started going, i think it's starting to flow through me in a whole new way. :)
