Here, small groups are the church, and it's easy to form meaningful relationships once plugged in. There are no superstar pastors or worship leaders here, and the church is shaped from the biblical model for the church. There's also coffee and donuts.

There is so much to say about Journey....first, if you are seeking a Bible church focused on the…read moreevangelical experience, this is not the church for you. If on the other hand, you are looking for a safe, loving, expansive community of people who LIVE like Jesus, instead of BELIEVE a certain doctrine, then this faith community is for you. I was formerly in a Bible church for 25 years then I discovered I was gay (after a 30 year heterosexual marriage and extreme internalized homophobia) and was shunned by almost all of my family, friends and community, with less than one handful of exceptions. The amount of trauma I and so many others in the Lgbtq community have had at the hands of 'church' and 'christians' has been extreme. Journey is NOT like this in any way. Journey and the beautiful mosaic of people here have wide open hearts that truly embody 'LOVE God and love your neighbor as yourself.' Everything is summed up in these two truths for Journey, just as Jesus said. They do not demand you believe in this or that specific doctrine. You are free to explore, question, wrestle and expand in your own way WITHOUT judgement or condemnation. I have experienced both judgement and condemnation in intense ways over the last 4 years from people who say they love me, yet their actions show anything but love. I do understand the fear this is coming from as I used to believe the very same hurtful things and am BEYOND blessed to have found such a healing and redemptive place at Journey.....this community is what Jesus meant by the church and by salvation. The service is very atypical for Texas churches so don't come expecting an extravagant worship time. The service is very interactive even during the pastors talk (I say talk because it is more of a fireside chat between a likeminded and equal group of people than a traditional pulpit pastor preaching at you) and the music is not an orchestrated concert, its humble and simple. Laid back and filled with the energy of love. Come, taste and see that God really is good and full of unconditional love in the midst of messy, honest, real, vulnerable and grace filled people who truly LOVE in action and word.

Despite these variations, the spirit of JourneyIFC has remained the same. We are a place open to allowing everyone to believe as they will. We do not tell people what to believe. The word "community" is in the name. We hope people who join us on Sundays or during our other events will feel welcome and appreciated for all that they are. We laugh, we cry, we learn, we disagree. We want to be fully human in a loving way and support each other in our growth.

They were also told that if they wore their Kamala for President t-shirts they would be physically harmed in the public. The girls were fearful for their souls. This is NOT how a church should be speaking nor how parishioners should be treated.

We visited churches and found some big on pizzazz, some buttoned down tight, and some that were nice, but weren't going to challenge and support our growth. Then we found Hope and it felt like coming home. People warmly welcomed us into community, preached the Word straight up - living and active, and helped us step out into deeper communion with Jesus' Spirit to love and serve the lost and hurting. We have been pulled more deeply into oneness with Christ and pushed outward into sacrificing for people who need to be loved. We have had friends move cities and every time we touch base, they tell us, "you don't know what you have here. We can't find it someplace else."

Now that's ministry!!!
