Real Life Ministries Texas

What Real Life Ministries Texas does

Real Life Ministries Texas is a non-profit disciple-making church headquartered at 1626 S. Cherry St., Tomball, Texas, with a reported staff of about 10. Founded in 2016, the organization runs two Sunday worship services (9:15 AM and 11:00 AM) and operates a broad ministry portfolio spanning Kids (birth through 5th grade), Students (6th-12th grade), Young Adults (18-30), Men, Women, Veterans, Sports & Outdoors, Small Groups, and a Care & Recovery cluster that includes Real Life Recovery (12-step re:generation curriculum), Real Life Marriage (15-week re:engage course, $30/person), Real Life Counseling and Care (clinical mental health services), and Real Life Military & First Responders (REBOOT 12-week program). The ministry is supported by affiliated on-campus programs including Lionheart Academy (early childhood education) and Real Life Residency (training pipeline for disciple-makers and church-planters).

The underlying technology stack is built on third-party church-plant infrastructure from The Church Co, with a Church Center mobile app powering registrations, small group sign-ups, giving, and first-time visitor forms. Digital distribution extends the physical campus through YouTube live streaming, an archived messages/podcast library, and an Instagram presence for the Young Adults ministry. Operations are managed by a small pastoral and administrative staff rather than a dedicated engineering function; no proprietary technology products, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities are evidenced.

Revenue is generated almost entirely from voluntary congregational giving — tithes, general offerings, and a First Fruits special campaign — supplemented by a small online merchandise store and modest program fees (the $30 Real Life Marriage course fee and book purchases for Real Life Recovery). Pricing across the core ministry is freemium; the commercial subsidiary Real Life Counseling charges for clinical services and represents the only meaningful paid service line. The organization is independently governed, with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or external funding rounds.
