The Outreach 100—a ranking of the 100 largest and 100 fastest-growing churches in the United States—is an annual collaboration between Outreach Magazine and Lifeway Research.

Hope Church has appeared in the list in each of the past four years. The congregation was the 79^th largest in 2013, 86^th largest in 2012, and 69^thlargest in 2011.

This year’s Outreach 100 report also featured an interview with Shane Farmer, Senior Pastor of Cherry Hills. The article is available online at www.outreachmagazine.com/interviews/10153-shane-farmer-an-irrevocable-call.html

While not exhaustive, the 2014 list is based on self-reported surveys from more than 27,000 congregations that were contacted by Lifeway for participation.
