You’ve come across something rather odd: A Church For People Who Don’t Like Church....but love beer. It sounds stupid, but the reality is that there are a lot of people who are looking for God and seeking a spiritual dimension to life, but just don’t want to go to church to find it. Ask someone what comes to mind when you say “Christian” and you’ll hear words like, “boring,” “judgmental,” “religio

us,” and “too political.” Yet when Jesus explained why he came he said, “I have come that you may have life to the full” (John 10:10). Somehow, Christians have really screwed up what it means to be a Christian. CRU(The Church for the Rest of Us) is a little... different. Got some serious doubts about Christianity? Even more negative towards church? Not sure you could fit in, or afraid lightning might strike if you showed up? Seriously, CRU is made up of people who once felt very far from God and could never picture themselves as part of a church. So, bring your doubts and questions, wear whatever you want, and please don’t feel like you have to put on a fake smile. At CRU, no perfect people are allowed. "What if I don't believe in God?"
We understand. And you're still welcome! We're hoping that maybe you're open to exploring faith, and to the idea that maybe there is a God and maybe He's worth knowing. Come join the CRU!

Church in a Brewery: "Innocence on trial, Setting the guilty free."

Missed last week's message? Watch us on YouTube: https://youtu.be/r7FHvg0LM-g

Ever feel like life isn’t exactly fair?
Like some people seem to get away with everything while others carry the weight of guilt, pressure, regret, or expectations?
This week at CRU, we’re diving into a story about innocence, blame, freedom, and the strange way grace works when nobody in the room really deserves it.
No church background needed. No pressure. Just real conversation, good beer, and a message that might hit closer to home than you expect.
Grab a pint and join the conversation.

Church in a Brewery: "The Many Faces of Opposition"

Missed us last week? Watch us on YouTube: https://youtu.be/F32X3_KFgs4

Not every challenge looks obvious.
Sometimes opposition comes through pressure, fear, distraction, pride, compromise, or even good intentions gone sideways.
This Sunday at CRU, we’re diving into Acts 5 and talking about “The Many Faces of Opposition” — and how the early church stayed grounded when everything pushed against them.
No churchy performance. No pretending.
Just real conversations, real people, good beer, and a message that still hits today.
Grab a pint and join the conversation.

Church in a Brewery: "A Traitor, a Severed Ear, & Unexpected Grace?"

Missed last week's message? Watch us on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ym74lgqk8bw

Some moments bring out the very best in people. Others expose everything underneath.
Mark 14 tells the story of betrayal, panic, violence, and failure all unfolding in a single night. A friend turns on someone he loves. A sword gets swung. Chaos erupts. And in the middle of it all, an unexpected act of grace changes the tone of the entire story.
This week at CRU, we’re talking about what this moment says about human nature, forgiveness, and why grace can be so difficult — and so necessary.
Grab a pint and join the conversation.

Ever feel like you don’t have what it takes?
Like you’re not qualified… not polished… not really “the type”?
You’re not alone.
In Acts 4, a couple of ordinary guys step up—and it completely shakes things up. No credentials. No platform. Just bold, real faith. This Sunday at The Church for the Rest of Us. Grab a pint and join the conversation.

Church in a Brewery: "A Story Worth Hearing"

Missed last week? Watch us on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LzUVSHLVPcA

Not every story is worth telling… but some are worth hearing.
This week is simple—no pressure, no agenda. Just a real story about real life, the kind most people don’t talk about out loud.
Grab a drink, hang out, and see what you think.

Church in a Brewery: "Is there any evidence for the Bible?"

Missed a CRU gathering? Click here for last week's message: https://youtu.be/ridtErUzvRU

Big questions deserve honest answers.
Is there real evidence for the Bible, or is Christianity just blind faith? This week at CRU, we’re digging into history, archaeology, and the case for Jesus in a way that’s real, raw, and open for discussion. Grab a pint, bring your questions, and join the conversation.
