There is a rumor that Andy Stanley is opening a church in Athens, GA. Is that true?

Athens Church is actually a strategic partner of Andy Stanley’s North Point Community Church. Athens Church celebrated its fifth year anniversary this past January. To check out pictures I took of the celebration, visit: https://jackiereedy.wordpress.com/2010/02/01/i-love-athens-church/
Athens Church services are currently held in the Classic Center. Athens Church is under contract to purchase the former (Wal-Mart/Steve & Barry’s) building near the intersection of Atlanta Highway and Loop 10 behind Starbucks. The entire 110K sq ft available in this facility will be master planned, but about 40-50K sq ft will be developed in phase one. The property sits on 11 acres of land with 700 parking spots, and will feature a 1200 seat auditorium, themed environments for children birth through 5th grade, student ministry, small group and other environments. It will also serve as the operational headquarters for our ministry efforts in this area.
