How To Get Connected
We are relational souls created in the image of a relational God. We are designed for true and meaningful connection with God and with others. We believe to experience true and meaningful connection with others, we must first be connected with God and attached to him. We pray that our church can help others connect, know, and experience deep and true relationship with God.
When we trust in Jesus by faith we are attached to God and belong to him. We are chosen and adopted as God's beloved children. In the person and work of Jesus, we are also connected to the household of God, called the church. In Jesus we are joined together as members of one another. We seek to grow in grace, build one another up, and bear witness to Jesus together. If you'd like to get connected or involved in our church, we won't point you to a list of programs, but rather to Jesus and his people called the church. Below you'll find the man ways that we encourage our visitors to connect with our church, as we seek to live out the relational approach of Jesus as modeled in the Bible.

With God
We believe that to be a Christian is to believe in Jesus and his gospel. When we believe in the person and work of Jesus we are connected to God and given a new kind of life. We think the gospel is the most important truth you can know or experience. The gospel changes everything. It has the power to change your life, transform communities, and renew societies when its implications are experienced, central, and functional. We desire that all people understand and believe the gospel.
With His Church
We believe one of the ways we can bear witness to the power of the gospel and unity of the Spirit is through committing ourselves to a local body or expression of the church in membership. This looks like practicing the "one another" commands of the New Testament and regularly meeting together for worship and fellowship. We believe commitment to a local church is a way to show our appreciation for Jesus and his commitment to give himself up for his church.
With A Community
Jesus modeled that the Christian life is lived in community. In community groups we learn together, practice the one another commands of the Bible, (such as pray for one another, serve one another, bear with one another, and love one another). Community groups are one of the ways we seek to grow in grace together as we meet throughout the week in homes and share life together. We seek to have our community groups be neighborhood-based.
With Groups of Two to Four
Jesus had large crowds that he taught, lived in community with twelve apostles, and within those twelve had a group of three that formed a kind of inner circle. In the grace of God, we are not made to walk alone in the Christian life. In discipling relationships, Christians of the same sex can meet to grow and learn together, and pray. Within this basic framework, discipling relationships may take a number of different shapes: an elder member may disciple a younger member, a more mature Christian might disciple younger Christians, or peers in the faith might effectively disciple one another. These discipling groups acts as a catalyst to Christian growth, helping us bear one another’s sorrows and joys.
With A Serve Team
Jesus defined greatness as becoming a servant (Mark 10:42-45). As Jesus as served us, we are to serve others. We have been called to freedom and to use our freedom to serve one another through love. Each of Jesus' followers has received a gift and are to use that gift to serve others as good stewards of God's varied grace (1 Peter 4:10). We have a variety of teams that serve on Sundays during our worship gathering and throughout the week. You can explore our Serve Teams below:
With the World
We believe when we're connected to God by faith, we're connected to the global mission of God to gather together a people from every tribe, tongue, and nation to enjoy His love forever. Jesus said, "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth" (Acts 1:8). We have been sent to our neighbors and to the nations. If you'd like to learn more about missions, you can click the link below.
