Brian and Angie Bolt

3/5/09--------due 3/13/09


Brian and Angie Bolt have been married for almost six years and planted a church in the inner city of pittsburgh and are working very hard, not to mention very well, to bring the unreached and unpreached to christ. Much of their outreach in the community is the homes they offer, which are similar to Freedom House, and these homes help people recover from addictions, prostitution, as well as other problems people face that few people really try to reach. One thing that really interests me about Brian is that he keeps to his calling. He keeps himself away from doing what he knows is not his calling for the era that he's in at the moment. Their model of church is made after their ability to take people off the streets, and hopefully reproduce themselves in others, so that they can continue to effec others, even when they aren't there. The average attendance seen in the weekend is 150, and that is in two times of the weekend, Friday and Sunday. Friday, which is a day I esecially like to have service, since it gets people from clubs and things that will particularly go against God, is the most spiritual service they have, Sunday is a more outreach-ish day to grab people. The whole church is very, very interesting to me, speifically because it's not the "norm" for churches, but they don't even seem to know, or at least they don't acknowledge, this fact. I like this church.
