A California church sold their church building and relocated in a new space where beer is served and plans are underway to build a brewery where church services can occur. "We decided to sell the building, because for us a church is a community and a movement," pastor Chris VanHall, who leads The Greater Purpose Community Church in Santa Cruz, California, told the NBC affiliate in the Bay Area last week.
VanHall's church community ended up in a food lounge complete with several beer options, a move that reportedly gained them new followers. He added: "There's nothing in the Bible that says you can't drink alcohol in a responsible manner."
