It is not affiliated with any [[Baptist]] denomination.  The church's members are almost entirely family members and are infamous for their protests and pickets at the funerals of soldiers who died in the line of duty, where they take the opportunity to denounce what they consider to be America's acceptance of [[homosexuality]].
