About How God Brought You by Pastor Ed Young
We have that opportunity right here at Fellowship Church to get involved in multiplication through x-treme insight, x-ponential influence and x-tending an invitation. As long as there are Scott’s out there, we will continue to do the math.

I’m with Richard and Nancy Golden and they have just an amazing story about what God has done in their lives. Tell me a little bit about how God brought you to where you are today here at Fellowship Church.
Richard: We both, Nancy and I, were feeling somewhat empty I think in our spiritual life. I was raised in a Jewish household as was Nancy. We just both felt there was something missing. We love that religion. We love the spiritual nature of it and history of it, but it just wasn’t filling an everyday void of having God in our life that we were missing. And so, one night, I guess late at night, I happened to be channel surfing, as so often I do, and came across Ed on television interviewing Daryl Sydor. He was a hockey player with the Stars. I just loved the message and loved what I saw about Fellowship Church and brought that up to Nancy. I said, “Let’s try something different. Let’s go out and check out this church.”
Nancy: I was so jazzed about going to see you on a Sunday. First of all, when I came here that day, it was the most awesome experience. Everyone from the parking attendants, the people you walk in, to the ushers were so friendly. They were incredible. “Hey, how are you,” you know, “Welcome, welcome.” And I just thought “Wow, everyone’s so friendly here. It’s like Disneyland. Everybody’s so happy and everybody had a smile on their face.” Seriously, then you walk in and it just was a very powerful feeling.
Fellowship Church Grapevine – They had that confidence, that thing you can’t really buy, that thing you can’t really gain. And we try to spend so much money and large blocks of time and we think we can buy confidence or gain confidence through some glassy-eyed guru.
