What if the secret to a transformed life lies in simple, daily practices? As we grow in spiritual formation, we’ll uncover the spiritual disciplines that serve as the catalyst for growth in the way of Jesus. We’ll explore how practices like prayer, Scripture reading, generosity, service, fasting, and solitude are not mere religious rituals but essential tools for spiritual formation. These disciplines are the pathways through which God shapes our hearts, minds, and souls, aligning us more closely with His will and character. But practicing these disciplines isn’t about adding more to our already busy lives; it’s about integrating them in a way that naturally flows from our desire to know and love Jesus more deeply. We’ll discuss how these practices create space for God to work in us, bringing about lasting transformation that goes beyond surface-level change. Are you ready to embark on a journey that will revolutionize your walk with Christ? Join us as we dive into the principles that will help you practice the way of Jesus every day.
WELCOME!
Whether you are here for the first time or the fourth time, we'd love to connect with you and help you get oriented and find your place within our church. As a bonus, we will donate $5 for every new connection we receive to a charity that we are passionate about supporting. Currently, we are supporting Flow Without Bounds Ministries, a local outreach serving the Kin Village and Trinity Square neighborhoods. Your participation helps support their mission to transform lives through practical care, mentorship, and sharing the love of Jesus Christ.
CHILDREN'S DISCIPLESHIPSHIP PROGRAM
We are committed to equipping families with lessons and tools to help children look to God for answers. Here’s how we engage your children during the service:
Service Schedule: Please check in your child at the desk upstairs before the service. Children stay with their families for the first 15 minutes of the service and are then dismissed to their classes.
Power Up! (Birth - Grade 5):
- Pre-School Program (18 months - 3 years): Room 3 is now open for toddlers, led by Ms. Verna and other leaders. During the “What’s Happening in Power Up!?” moment, please accompany your toddler to the front of the sanctuary, and then to Room 3 for their class. Parents will wait outside while children enter the classroom.
- School Aged Program (Kindergarten - Grade 5): This program remains the same for kindergarten to grade 5. Children will be dismissed ~15 minutes after the service starts, following the “What’s Happening in Power Up!?” moment. Learn more >>
- Nursery & Parent Supervision (Under 18 months and others who need it): Room 4 and the lobby are open for parents who wish to stay with their younger children or those who need extra supervision, with livestream of the service.
Extension (Gr. 6 - 8):
- Youth typically head downstairs to Room 10 after dismissal (~15 minutes into the service). However, on the first Sunday of each month (Communion Sunday), Youth will remain in the service. Learn more >>
Grades 9 and above stay in the service every Sunday.
