Our daughter and her husband attend what is now called Life.Church. Since it's a campus-based church we attend with them when they are in town and have probably attended at least a dozen services. We also occasionally watch the services online. I've listened to at least a dozen more of Pastor Groeschel's sermons which are available for free download at the church's website.

After watching the video I'd say it has the quality of a deliberate smear that is totally contrary to the doctrine taught. He could be lying saying he's a member or perhaps an attendee who had not yet even received Christ.

You can also find at the website the church's 10 value statements. For example "We will lead the way with irrational generosity. We truly believe that it's more blessed to give than receive." You may have heard of YouVersion, the number one Bible app with something like 300,000,000 downloads. This is produced and given away free by Life.Church.

We have not been led to leave our current church but highly respect Life.Church for totally nailing all 8 church systems, engaging young people especially. There are 25 campuses with a system-wide attendance of 90,000+ making it probably the largest church body in America. Last week a reported 1,500 people were baptized.
