10-Point Theological Scorecard
Christology
Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Scripture
Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?
Church framed 2014 reversal as Scripture-based; Teaching Pastor Tim Ayers: 'This decision is not a slippery slope. It is getting in line with God's initial designs for His people.'
Caution
Men's Discipleship
Intentional formation for men?
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Soteriology
Faith alone? How is salvation presented?
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Gender / Biblical Design
Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?
Leaders decided to 'lift all restrictions from women in leadership, including the role of an elder and the role of a senior pastor' (Feb 2014). Egalitarian.
Post-2014 fully egalitarian — women may serve as elders and senior pastor per official statement.
WARNING!
Leadership Structure
Male elders/pastors? Accountability?
Pastor Barry Rodriguez leads; elder structure exists. Post-reversal policy allows women elders.
Caution
Preaching Style
Expository or topical/therapeutic?
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Mission Clarity
Great Commission central?
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Cultural Alignment
DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?
Not stated on available sources — verify in person.
Caution
Accountability Structure
Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?
Non-denominational; 'loosely associated with EFCA' per external report, but self-describes as non-denom.
