Oh you mean Mr. Millionaire that created “his” church to be able to attract as many people as he could? The guy has a marketing degree and did research on why people liked certain churches and why some didn’t. He didn’t use the Bible to start a congregation. Life church is all about making folks feel good about themselves. It is NOT a biblical church. It’s sad to see so many people fall for the lies. And I’m sorry man, it is NOT a real church. There is only ONE real church. And it’s not a building. And it’s not called something like “life” church. There are two names that refer to places of worship. Churches of Christ and Churches of God.Life Church, Pastor Craig Groeschel. This church is real, the Word is preached but no one is brow beaten into submission. Most people that visit come back. Give them a visit.
They also have Church online.
It’s because they all don’t follow scripture. That’s how we can tell who are real and who ain’t. Sadly many folks are illiterate when it comes to scripture. Or they have been brainwashed to believe lies ( not referring to you).So many of the churches have left me. I no longer associate with them such as the UCC, Presbyterian, Methodist, First Baptist, etc because of their "world views" and allowing certain behaviors and ordinations.
Fredkrueger you crack me up....yes Life (and other fast growing congregations) intentionally tries to attract as many people as it can. Believers want to spread The Word to as many people as possible as we live in a world that is growing more lost everyday. That is the core foundation of the Bible....reaching the lost. The concept that the Church isn’t a building is part of their core beliefs.... the church is/are the people who meet there and take The Gospel out into the world. Groschel does teach the Bible.... not in a traditional fire and brimstone way, but in a way that applies to life today. He relates to people in a way traditional pastors do not. The most important part of being a Christian is following Christ, not a denomination. There are many churches that teach the Bible.... each in their own way. It doesn’t change the fact that that they are Bible based. Each reaches people in their own unique way.
I would challenge you to attend a Life location for a few services and see for yourself. I think you would be surprised.
