Accountability Structure
Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?
Unverified SBC tie per one search result, but not confirmed on Hoboken Grace's own pages (/about, /leadership both 404 or absent). No elder roster surfaced, no named accountability network visible on site. Founder Chris High + wife Ana 'and three others' founding model remains the best evidence — founder-led. Keep red until SBC affiliation or elder plurality is verifiable on primary source.
