The Alpha Course

The Alpha Course is for people who are exploring faith, God, and meaning, but who wouldn’t identify as a Christian. It’s designed to be an open, informal conversation around faith.

Attend Church

Making church attendance a priority and pattern in your life is one of the best ways to continue to grow in your faith through corporate worship, community, and preaching from the Bible.

Attend Church

Faith In Jesus

Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10) We’re convinced that following Jesus is the best decision anyone could make.

Faith In Jesus

Baptism

Baptism is a step of obedience to Christ. It’s the external symbol and declaration we make for the inward transformation that faith in Jesus has made in our lives. Learn more.

Baptism

Groups

Groups are the primary way our church connects one another in order to provide community, encouragement, and accountability in our lives.

Groups

Serve

Serving others allows God to use us, stretch us, and develop the spiritual gifts that He has placed in us. We’re most like Jesus when we serve!

Serve

Give

Living irrationally generous lives takes our eyes off of ourselves to see what God is doing in our city and world. Where your treasure is, your heart is also!
