Frontline was the young adult ministry of McLean Bible Church, a non-denominational evangelical Christian church with campuses throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area.〔Lillian Kwon,(“Multi-Site Church: Risky but Worth It” ), (The Christian Post ), February 6, 2007.〕 Frontline was started in 1994 and has an average weekly attendance of over 2500〔(“Frontline Ministry Draws Young Adults with Music” ), The Washington Times, January 22, 2007.〕 between its multiple campuses. John McGowan is the current Director and Teaching Pastor for Frontline. In early 2011 John stepped up for Todd Phillips, Frontline's previous Teaching Pastor. Todd Phillips now teaches at Lake Pointe Church; a multi-site church outside of Dallas, Texas. ==History==
McLean Bible Church, one of the largest churches in the Washington, DC region, launched Frontline in October 1994 as a Sunday evening worship service. Since inception, the goal of Frontline is to minister to young adults, ages 18 – 35, in the nation’s capital region through worship, small group fellowship and volunteer opportunities.〔Marshall Shelley and Eric Reed,(“Fix Your Gaze” ), (Leadershipjournal.net )〕 Initially, Lon Solomon, the senior pastor of McLean Bible Church, preached during the services . During the summer of 1995, the director of Frontline, Ken Baugh, began to preach during the services while Solomon was on vacation for the summer. Baugh, the former Young Adults Pastor at Saddleback Church in California, was a success and remained the permanent teaching pastor.〔 Baugh oversaw steady growth of this new ministry from an average attendance of 300 in 1995 to 2000 in 2000.〔 The new worshippers credited this growth to Baugh’s efforts to make Frontline relevant to young adults through music, sermons and videos.〔Julia Duin,("Meeting on the Frontline" ), (Christianity Today ), April 1, 1999〕 Ken Baugh became pastor of Coast Hills Community Church in California, which led to Todd Phillips’ promotion to pastor of Frontline in January 2005. Phillips had launched successful young adult ministries in Austin, Kerrville and San Antonio, Texas for the previous 10 years.〔(Todd Phillips ),(Right Now Campaign )〕 Under Phillips, Frontline continues to grow in membership, number of small groups, regular events and volunteer opportunities.
