What we've created is a really friendly environment with relevant teaching, cool music, free food and if you come for the first time you get a welcome CD because we know people are looking for a church.

It's kind of like living a dream. For me the whole thing is there's a better way to live life. We want to help other people live better lives. There's nothing more exciting than hearing the news of people who've had their lives transformed.

With Regal Cinemas we were one of the first couple of churches in America to start a church in a Regal cinema. Now they promote to churches. The management at the theaters has been unbelievable. We could not be where we are without them.

We don't have room to grow anymore so this move is necessary. It's really cool. There are 900 seats in the auditorium at the school. It's a brand-new school.

I?m just happy that our weather is coming in [today] and not Friday.

The soda fountain will be open all evening long.
