Grow
It can be complicated for a lot of people. Whether you're skeptical because of your life's circumstances, interactions with other people who claim to be Christians, or church hurt and baggage, we understand there are a number of barriers for people.
Jesus welcomed skeptics, and we do too.

SUNDAY GATHERING
A simple place to start is by joining us for our Sunday morning gatherings in person (or check out our previously recorded messages online to see what we're all about).
EVENTS
We'd also love to have you come to some of our events. Our hope for all of our community events is that you'll find people you'd like to build relationships with outside of an hour on Sunday.
GROUPS
We’ve found that spiritual growth often happens in the context of community because God uses people in our lives to teach us about His character and meet our physical and spiritual needs. We encourage you to check out the groups we offer.
If none of these groups work for you, consider meeting up with a few others in your life to have intentional, spiritual conversations. It doesn't need to be complicated. We've compiled a list of questions to help you get started.
If you'd like to join a small group of people to talk about faith & life, let us know because we'd love to help.

Do you believe the gospel? For a quick explanation of the "good news," check out this short overview.
Paul writes in Romans 10:9-10:
9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.
If you're a believer and you want to grow in your faith, we're here to help.
BAPTISM
Baptism was one of Jesus' "first steps" in his life of ministry and it's an important one for us, too. Find out more.
RESOURCES
God wants a more than Sunday relationship with you and we want to help. We have resources for you and your kids to build spiritual practices into your everyday life.

If you look at Jesus’ life and teachings, you'll see he was constantly calling his followers into a deeper relationship with him.
In Matthew 22, religious leaders were asking Jesus what he believed to be the most important commandment.
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (Matthew 22:37-39)
Committing your life and purpose to Jesus means that ultimately you’re allowing God to transform every part of who you are from the inside out. For some that may mean a radical overnight shift in thinking, but for many it’s a long process with ebbs and flows.
SERVING
As we grow in relationship with Jesus, he will bring about opportunities for us to share the hope we’ve found in Him with the people around us. Walking alongside people you love as they begin to follow Jesus is one of our favorite full-circle life experiences. We hope you’ll commit to this work and let God use you to impact your relationships, community, and the world around us.
GIVING
God uses faithful generosity to help others find & follow Jesus. We give financially as an act of worship- to remind ourselves that our hope is not in the things of this world that will rust and decay- but in an everlasting hope found only in Jesus.
