Real Life Ministries
Real Life Ministries is a non-denominational, Evangelical Christian church in Post Falls, Idaho, USA, situated in Kootenai County. The church was planted in 1998 by four families, including the now senior pastor and elder, Jim Putman. Since its founding, the church has grown to an average weekend attendance of over 7,000 and has become one of the fastest growing churches in the United States, ranking 13th in a 2007 report.〔 〕
== History ==
The church began by meeting in private homes until the numbers became too great, at which time it was able to rent space in a movie theater. In 1999, Church Development Fund stepped in to buy of land in Post Falls, through its Advanced Land Purchase program, in order for the church to build a facility to serve the 850 in weekly attendance at that time. The church moved into a building on that property in 2001, but quickly outgrew it.
In 2004, the church built a facility, with a multi-purpose 1,700 seat auditorium, also on the same property. Real Life Ministries has purchased an additional plus a home, for a total of at the current site. The Church's master plan for the current site included a 3,600 seat main building, a softball field and a youth center. It has been a borrower of CDF for land purchases and all phases of construction.
In a 22 June 2006 letter to the Coeur d'Alene Press (CDA Press), RLM's financial accountability was questioned. The writer suggested RLM seek certification from the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability as other large churches had done. RLM responded with its own letter to the CDA Press on 15 July, describing its accounting practices and stating that it would seek ECFA certification as an additional measure of outside accountability. In December 2008, the ECFA accepted RLM's application.
