Assessment
Elmbrook Church — one of the largest churches in the US (7,000+ weekly). Non-denominational evangelical megachurch. Senior Pastor Tim Breene. Founded 1958. Stuart Briscoe was the famous long-time pastor (1970-2000). Two locations (Brookfield and Lake Country). Spanish ministry. Strong evangelical heritage through Briscoe's legacy. Located at 777 S Barker Rd confirmed. Historically solid expository preaching church under Briscoe — current doctrinal posture under Breene needs verification.
