Community for following Jesus
Deeper faith. Richer relationships. Greater purpose. Without any behaviors of un-Christlike “Christianity.”
“You are God’s poem, born on purpose for good purposes in Christ Jesus.” — Ephesians 2:8–10
“Empty rituals don’t matter. What counts is real faith that makes you love people.” — Galatians 5:6
Welcome
Church isn’t a place you go. It’s who you become.
Welcome to a community that supports anyone who wants to know or follow the Lord Jesus Christ.
We seek to remove hindering burdens of fear, shame, or past hurt. These burdens may come from relationships or even from church experiences that did not reflect Christ.
The BASICS of Knowing and Following Jesus
Fulfilling growth in Christ happens in three BASIC dimensions:
Deep Faith
Deep faith grows from knowing the true, biblical Jesus.
It develops as we live the truth of His Word and experience the freedom and transformation He brings.
“If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” — John 8:31–32
Rich Relationships
Rich relationships grow through Christ-centered partnerships.
These partnerships take shape in homes, workplaces, and everyday life as we learn to trust, love, and walk together.
“As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” — John 13:34
Greater Purpose
Greater purpose emerges as Jesus awakens God-given gifts within us.
Our lives and work are shaped to bless others wherever He places us.
“You are God’s poem, born on purpose for good purposes in Christ Jesus.” — Ephesians 2:10
This community exists to support growth in each of these areas.
Wherever God leads you, you will have discernment, strength, and tools to remain grounded and confident in Christ.
“Us Together” Approach
We are not a corporate organization or an exclusive social club.
We are a local expression of Christ’s Church. We are every person God calls together, ekklesia, to grow in Him.
Each person is valued.
Gatherings are participative.
Beliefs and practices are transparent.
“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” — Matthew 18:20
“When you come together, each of you has a hymn, a word of instruction, a revelation.” — 1 Corinthians 14:26
Freedom from Burdens
The Good News of Jesus Christ is about freedom from burdens. Jesus does not invite people into religious exhaustion. He invites them into rest and freedom.
“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
Some hesitate to approach Jesus because they fear condemnation for past choices.
Others do seek Jesus but instead encounter hurt, control, or empty religion.
These negative experiences may involve power misuse, legalism, misplaced traditions, lack of truthful biblical teaching, or leadership that fails to reflect Christlike love.
One important way we support growth in Christ is helping people find the rest Jesus promised.
How We Support This Freedom
We intentionally operate in ways that foster healing, trust, and authentic faith.
We see people for who they are today and the potential Christ is forming in them.
We focus on people rather than buildings, production, or performance.
Teaching is interactive, and honest questions are always welcome.
Leadership is shared. No one holds power over another.
We avoid business models, church politics, and performance stages.
Servant leaders give their time as an offering to Christ, not for money, power, or prestige.
Man-made traditions are never confused with biblical truth.
Mistreatment or abuse of any kind is not tolerated.
We do not promote or oppose political parties.
“I have come that they may have life and have it to the full.” — John 10:10
“The truth will set you free.” — John 8:32
Let’s grow in Christ—together.

Our Why and Testimony.
How God’s Word leads us.
“Present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the Word of truth.” — 2 Timothy 2:15
God Word has truth and wisdom for life. We don’t try to make Scripture fit our agendas or leave out inconvenient parts. Instead, we explore the whole Bible, in context, learning how to follow Jesus well.
God lifts people like eagles, but commercial religion deosn’t.
We agree with God the Bible is His Word. We also agree with what God says about Christ's Church.
Every follower of Jesus is a living sanctuary. A local “church” is any place where even two or three believers gather to help each other grow in Him. God’s kingdom isn’t big buildings or polished programs—it is lives genuinely changed by meeting the real Jesus showing it in how they honor God and love others.
Let’s team up and help each other follow Jesus!
“Encourage and build one another up.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:11
