This is The Connection Church in Kyle

This is my church. It's an awesome church and if you're ever in my neck of the woods, you should come check it out.

Why I like The Connection Church 

What I like best about the connection church, is that it's not "churchie."

I don't mean that in a bad way. This is a bible based church that preaches hard about biblical principles, but is determined on connecting people with God.

What I mean is that it's a church with real people. Not people that put on a face when they go to church, or pretend to be something they're not. These are real people, that lead real lives and face real challenges.

Our pastor, is named Cole Phillips. He started the church 3 years ago, but if you really think about it, Cole didn't start the church.

A newspaper article said that the church grew from 4 people to over 500 members in those 3 years. The only reason something like that happens is if the church is living up to its mission of connecting people with God, connecting people with the church and connecting people with each other.

We moved into our venue at the Hays County Performing Arts Center, aka "The PAC." in April of 2008. I had the honor of handling the house video for our very first service at the PAC. I took a couple of pictures, which I've included below.

I left service so inspired that I had to make this lens about my church.

We have 2 services on Sundays (duh) 1 service at 9:00 am and another at 10:30 am. We also have various "Connection Groups" that meet throughout the week at various venues.

Come to one of our services and see for yourself what I mean when I say that the church rocks.

Christian books on Amazon 

The Connection Church in Kyle is listed as a case study in the Pop Goes the Church book. They dedicated a whole section to us. We're notorious for having done something that no other church has done, nor probably will do. Get the book to find out what that was.

The other 2 books, are awesome books about Christian principles. What I like about these books, is that they are not preachy and are both written in an easy to read and understand fashion.
