Metroplex Chapel is a local church affiliated with the Church of the Nazarene, and is located in the heart of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, in Euless, Texas. It was founded in 1983 by Dr. Jim Garlow, his wife Carol, and seven people in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The church first met at the American Airlines Learning Center and after two and a half years, moved to the East Wing of the Midway Square Shopping Center. In October 1988 the congregation bought the East Wing of the shopping center (located near the southeast corner of the Dallas–Fort Worth International Airport, and by November of 1992 the entire center had been purchased and the congregation dedicated and moved into its present auditorium and worship center in the South Wing of the church building.
Jim Garlow served as founding and senior pastor until September, 1995, when he accepted the position of Senior Pastor of Skyline Wesleyan Church in San Diego, California, succeeding John Maxwell, where Garlow continues in that role to the present. Metroplex Chapel experienced significant growth and success throughout his tenure as pastor.
The church began an eight-month search for a new pastor, and in May 1996 Dan Huckins accepted the call to become the new Senior Pastor. Dan led Metroplex Chapel for four years helping to clarify the congregation’s vision and direction. Following his tenure at Metroplex Dan served has served as the Senior Pastor of First Nazarene in Portland, Oregon, and First Nazarene in Lima, Ohio, where he currently serves.
The search for a successor to Pastors Jim Garlow and Dan Huckins began immediately. The church board and congregation extended a call to become Senior Pastor to one of its own members who had served the congregation during both previous pastors. On May 21, 2000, Scott Fisher, was asked to become the Senior Pastor of Metroplex Chapel. Scott and his family had been members of Metroplex Chapel since 1992 and he had previously served on the church board and search committee. Scott also had served as pastor of a non–denominational congregation in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, had led an international missions organization, and had served as the Director of Communications for a leading Christian political action organization. He and his wife have lived in Bedford, Texas since 1979, have raised three children, and are active members of the community.
Scott has served as an appointee of Governor Rick Perry to the Texas Ethics Commission, and currently serves as a Tarrant County Commissioner’s appointee to the Board of Managers of the Tarrant County Hospital District, the John Peter Smith Health Network.
Under Scott's ministry Metroplex Chapel hopes to fulfill its vision and ministry of being a dynamic, growing church where people's lives are touched and changed; where relationship with Jesus Christ is nourished and relationships with one another thrive; where God's Word is honored and Jesus is worshipped!

The Skull of Yoruk is a powerful item in the computer game Zork Grand Inquisitor which contains the essence of deep magic. It is the skull of Saint Yoruk, who learned the secrets of deep magic from the devil in Hades.
A gaggle of grues took the skull from the Steppinthrax Monastery to their breeding ground underneath the White House.
According to Belboz, "the skull has fueled wars, toppled cities, and through it all, remained quite shiny."
In Zork Grand Inquisitor, the player sends a dim-witted Brogmoid back in time to retrieve the skull from beneath the White House. The skull is eventually united with the Cube of Foundation and the Coconut of Quendor to restore magic to Zork.
The name of the skull is a parody of the skull of Yorick, a character in William Shakespeare's Hamlet.
