[QUOTE="GunSlingingPlatypus, post: 3413770, member: 34930"] Let me tell you what works for me. I grew up Pentecostal and Southern Baptist. I've been in church my entire life and I was very active in my youth group growing up. My churches growing up weren't that large maybe a couple hundred in the congregation. In 2000 while I was a sophomore in college I started attending Life Church when there was only one building/campus. I went there for 2 years and really enjoyed it. As a retired rock star I'm all about the music. I love the loud rock with lights and some stage presence. It's just in my blood. Because of that, I was recruited to help start another church. In 2002, I was recruited by Brian Rush and Herbert Cooper to help start People's Church. They needed a drummer and I was the rock oriented drummer they wanted. I left Life Church to launch People's Church and I was there until 2018. I took a sabbatical from drummer after my divorce in 2014 and just never got back to it thanks to the arthritis in my neck. I'm only 40 years old but thanks to years of drumming I have a messed up C1, C2, and C3. In 2018 some friends of mine that used to attend People's Church invited my boys and me to visit their church, Victory Church Edmond. We went and my boys loved it! They're really engaged and love the other kids and the leaders. My boys are 7 and 9. I really love Pastor Jon Chasteen and his messages and preaching style. I'm not a big fan of the music (not rocking enough) but it's tolerable because I love the messages. They tried to get me to drum but I told them it wasn't heavy enough and not my style, plus the issue with my neck could be a problem. My kids prefer Victory over People's Church because they felt like they didn't fit in at People's Church and didn't learn anything just played. They're learning and having fun at Victory Church. Victory Church has two campuses (Edmond and Warr Acres). I would guess on any given Sunday the Edmond campus has around 300-400 attendees and two services (9:00 and 11:00). [/QUOTE]
