10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

Evangelical orthodox per Fresh Life vision/values; specific statement not loaded.

Caution

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

'Teach the Bible in a way that people could understand'; authority affirmed, inerrancy language not quoted.

Caution

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Not detailed on available content.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Evangelical salvation emphasis: 'those stranded in sin find life and liberty in Christ.'

Caution

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

Lead pastors Levi and Jennie Lusko (husband-wife). Jennie functions as co-pastor in public ministry — egalitarian-adjacent but not formally egalitarian.

Husband-wife lead pastor team (Levi and Jennie Lusko). ARC network generally permits female co-pastor framing.

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Strong founder-personality model with multi-state campuses; ARC-aligned church planting. Lusko-centric celebrity pastor concern.

WARNING!

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Topical/motivational celebrity-pastor preaching typical of ARC network; not classic expository.

WARNING!

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

'Make Jesus famous and teach the Bible'; multi-state expansion across MT/OR/UT/WY/ID.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

No explicit DEI/CRT/affirming language observed; ARC network generally avoids culture-war stances.

Caution

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

Non-denominational; ARC (Association of Related Churches) network — independent church-planting cooperative without confessional accountability.

WARNING!

Assessment

Fresh Life Church in Montana. Led by Levi Lusko, popular author/speaker. ARC-affiliated. Creative, energetic. Generally conservative but verify depth.

Enrichment Notes

ARC network model: celebrity pastor + multi-state expansion + light doctrinal commitments. Website in record (arcchurches.com) is wrong — should be freshlife.church.
