What To Expect

We believe that engaging in a church is a lot like a marriage. It takes some time to get to know each other, to discover each other’s likes, dislikes, and to determine if the parties in question are compatible.

We want people coming in to understand from the beginning what God has called us to as a group of Christ followers. There are some essentials you will absolutely hear over and over again. If you do not embrace them, or at the very least embrace an openness to grow in them, you will find yourself dissatisfied and eventually detached from the body. That is not a healthy place to be for a believer. That is why we want to be up front and honest about what you will hear, see and do as a part of our church.

  •  You will consistently hear about the Sovereignty of God in all things in life.
  •  You will learn about the complete sufficiency of God’s word to guide us in everything.
  •  You will be constantly challenged, internally and externally, to be engaged in the mission on a personal level.
  •  You will be encouraged to live in a way that requires dependence on the Spirit of God.
  •  You will have opportunity to be involved in relationships that encourage, equip, and challenge you.
  •  You have as much time as needed to wrestle through these ideas and to ask questions.
