I think they are inflated - there are very few mega churches in UPCI.

It definitely would be around here.
It's all a matter of perspective.

Re: UPCI Mega Churches???
I'm surprised Johnny Godair's church in NC isn't no the list. I've always heard they had a pretty big congregation.

Re: UPCI Mega Churches???
I would have to agree that the numbers are very inflated. For example, Fresno dosn't have that type of capacity. Now if your talking about the conference they have each year, yes, but not the church as a whole. Same for Stockton. they have never had 5000 for a regular service. Now for a conference, maybe. The rock is about right. Give and take a service or two. Don't know much about the other churches in Cali. Bro Mooney, When he has all the students and staff and church together, maybe, but if you have ever watched a service of his, that church is never full. Just my input.

Re: UPCI Mega Churches???
maybe the number reflects how many they can actually seat in service on a Sunday. =) Some seem to have big aspirations, even if they never reach that number they consider themselves as pastoring that many. It is good for their self esteem.

Their church is big, but not that big-- I remember their prayer room area not being that big also.
I miss NC UPCI churches.
There was a young Pastor that is a former Marine that went to the same church as I in Jacksonville. His church is Newport, I think, but I don't remember his name now.
