BEST. Church. EVER.

"This church does not tell you what to do or what to think…it shines a light on truth that allows you to find it yourself. One of MANY reasons this is the best church ever."
Amy S.Good Bird
"Marty’s commitment to true gnosis above anything else is beyond rare. His intelligence, work ethic and integrity is inspiring. The members are a true reflection of this commitment which has created a community of amazing people that I’m grateful and proud to be apart of. I’m a better husband and father because of this church. #bestchurchever"
Jared PoolGood Bird
"Rediscovering lost wisdom, reaffirming true Christian values, and reimagining 21st century community make this the #bestchurchever."
Marty HorusGood Bird
"I’ve been attending the live sermons via YouTube every Sunday for almost 2 months. That’s probably equal to the amount of church I’ve been to in that previous 20 years. And it’s obvious to me that that’s because there’s something special about Pastor Leeds and the church members. And like I’ve commented a few times, I’m grateful to feel welcome here."
Robert SillsGood Bird
"For having a pastor that's actually dedicated, open, and honest with the congregation, hard working, with the integrity and guts to call out the BS, but still down to have a good time. For the greatest community one could ask for this side of heaven, the best support group, willing to pray, laugh, and offer counsel to those in need. For being medicine to the soul, sustenance for the mind, and hope for the heart. This is why this church is the #bestchurchever
Find the Middle PathGood Bird
"I grew up with the Bible my whole life. My family are devout Christians. My grandfather literally built the church where as a kid I would go and worship with my family. I was baptized and got married in that Church… but something always felt off to me about religion. I had a great grandmother that was more Christian than anyone that attended the church… she radiated light and never came to church. I remember she told me “You’re relationship with God is yours and yours alone.”
Dave DixGood Bird
"I value authenticity, keeping shit real, and being responsible for myself. This church reminds me every Sunday, that we take serious matters seriously, all the while getting a healthy dose of humor to uplift our spirits. The love, compassion, and support we have for each other is unmatched. And the masterfully prepared and presented sermons brimming with indisputable truth ain't half bad either! My life has become reinvigorated with passion and excitement that normie reality simply could never inspire me to muster. Truly and undoubtedly the #bestchurchever
GatofishGood Bird
“This church is the only one I know of that is providing people with a real understanding of how to find their way back to God. It is what I’ve been looking for my whole life, but didn’t know it existed. Every sermon is packed with gold. And this community is the kindest, most loving, yet takes no shit and keeps people striving to be their highest self. This comes from being led by Brother Marty and Jen who wouldn’t be able to do this if they weren’t already so far along in The Great Work. I couldn’t be more grateful.”

WHO ARE THE "GOOD BIRDS"?

& How does one become a "Good Bird"?!?

GOOD BIRD Tommy The Pete Portrait

GOOD BIRD is an endearing term we use to refer to the members of our flock in loving memory of our great first rooster, Thomas (nicknamed Tommy the Pete).

Back then, while we thought we were just getting a chicken, we grew very fond of the bird, who had the personality, courage, and loyalty of a dog.

In short, he was a GOOD BIRD. The best, actually. We humorously transferred this expression to our favorite humans, and now, to our congregation.

Being a GOOD BIRD naturally evolved to mean to be a human “in good standing”, which we expect all of our church members to be.

Now go on… Flap your wings & be a GOOD BIRD!

Become a good bird today!
