The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints.

It's a participatory "roll up your shirtsleeves" church staffed by almost exclusively by an unpaid lay ministry, a church where worshippers are expected to show their love for God and Jesus Christ through service to others. There isn't a single Rick Warren-style "rockstar" among any of the leadership. No entertainment value to be had. No pressure to satisfy itching ears.

I think you may be right. But another question is — is social justice/social gospel/social reform supposed to be what Christ’s church is focused on?
