A St. Louis congregation that focuses on reaching 20- and 30-somethings is anything but traditional. In a back room at Schlafly Bottleworks in Maplewood, about 50 people gathered on a recent Wednesday night over beer to talk rock ’n’ roll.
Theology at the Bottleworks is run by a successful congregation of young St. Louisans called “The Journey”. The Schlafly program is part of the church’s outreach ministry. First-timers are invited to check out the church on Sunday, and Journey leaders say many have.

This certainly takes mission efforts to a different level.

I know they do something similar here in Pittsburgh. It's theology on tap. Not many Southern Baptists show up.
