While Fairway Christian is a Disciples of Christ church it is as close to a "non denominational" feel as you can get IMO. I grew up in a Disciples church and a few years ago toured the USS Lexington in Corpus Christi, where in the chapel they displayed pictures of all the Chaplains that had served the ship over the years. A preponderance of the Chaplains had been ordained in the Disciples of Christ, which surprised me, as it is a relatively small denomination. When I mentioned it to our pastor he said it was probably because there is little "doctrine" in the church making it feel welcoming to Christians of any denomination. We are now Lutheran, but have been to Fairway a few times and found it to uplifting and welcoming. Hope Lutheran is our home church in TV and it is also very warm and welcoming.
