Chief Ministry Officer

NON-DENOMINATIONAL

WEEKLY ATTENDANCE: 3,000

Meet Church Project

Church Project started in 2010 as a Church of House Churches™. What began with 40 people and two House Churches has turned into a movement of thousands of people in many House Churches locally. And, other Church Projects have been planted regionally, nationally, and globally.

Church Project began as a pursuit to return to what Jesus originally intended for the church to be. A deep study of the church biblically, historically, and globally revealed what we defined as eDNA- Ecclesiological DNA™. This DNA of the structure of the church was given early, and should be applied to all people, in all places, at all times.
