The Church Behind the Platform
Lead Pastor
Mosaic
Los Angeles, CA, United States
Mosaic is not ranked in the 2026 Church Influence 100. The two indexes measure different things: one scores church-branded accounts, this one scores the pastor's own.
A personal following is a trust account. People follow a name, hear a voice, and decide what to believe about the church behind it. That is a weight to carry well, not a scoreboard to win.
