I don't know if you are familiar with Sovereign Grace Ministries, but their 'claim to fame' is being 5-point Charismatic Calvinists. They are a loose federation of 70 -80 churches, mostly along the east coast, who claim C.J. Mahanay as their organizing founder. I only know about this because my daughter became involved in one of their churches in North Carolina a few years ago. We've worshipped there on occasion and had a meaningful, inspirational time with these thoroughly Reformed brothers and sisters in Christ. They do about 50 minutes of energetic worship and praise, with some words of prophesy and knowledge springled in. Then they move into a 50 minute expository sermon. In addition, they are missional -- focusing on reaching the lost by planting churches. What a wonderful combination!
