Yes, absolutely. In fact, we believe it's church in one of its purest forms.

When you look at the early church in the book of Acts, you see them meeting "from house to house" (Acts 2:46). They shared meals, prayed together, studied the teachings of the apostles, and cared for one another's needs. They were a family before they had buildings.

We believe "church" is not an event you attend or a building you go to, but a community of people you belong to. In our home churches, we practice all the essential elements of a church: worship, biblical teaching, fellowship, prayer, and serving our community together. We are simply prioritizing the relational foundation upon which a healthy, lasting church is built.

We love kids and believe they are a vital part of our church family! Our approach is intentionally inter-generational, meaning we value children learning and growing alongside their families and other trusted adults.

In our kid-friendly groups, here's what you can typically expect:

✴ Kids are included. They join the adults for the meal and initial gathering time. We believe it's powerful for them to see adults modeling community and faith.

✴ There's a dedicated time for them. During the adult discussion, parents in the group often take turns leading a simple, fun, and age-appropriate Bible lesson for the kids in a separate room or area.

✴ It's a shared effort. You won't be on your own! Parents work together to create a safe and engaging environment for the children, which builds community among the families as well.

✴ For our older students (middle and high school), we encourage them to participate in the main discussion, offering their own perspectives and building relationships with adult mentors.

Absolutely not. There is zero pressure to participate beyond your comfort level.

We believe everyone is on their own unique journey, and our groups are safe places for people to process, listen, and learn at their own pace. Some people are natural talkers, while others learn best by listening. Both are equally valuable ways of participating in the community.

Our goal is for you to feel welcomed and accepted, not put on the spot. You will never be asked to read, answer a question, or pray aloud unless you want to.

Not at all! We would be honored to have you join us.

Our home churches are for everyone, regardless of where you are on your spiritual journey. Whether you're a committed Christian, a skeptic, or just curious about faith and looking for community, you are welcome. We believe that asking questions and exploring faith is best done in an honest and supportive environment.

So, please, come as you are. Bring your questions and your doubts. We don’t have all the answers, but we are committed to seeking them together.

Currently, our primary expression of church happens in our home churches that meet throughout the week. We have intentionally chosen this model to focus on building a strong, relational foundation for our community.

However, we do get everyone together regularly! About once a month, all of our home churches join for an "All-Hands Gathering." This is a chance for us to worship together, celebrate what God is doing across our groups, hear a message about our shared vision, and simply enjoy being one unified church family.

You can find the dates and times for our next gathering on our Events page.

We are a Christ-centered church that holds to the core tenets of the historic Christian faith. While we welcome diverse perspectives on secondary issues, we are united around these essentials:

The Bible: We believe the Bible is the inspired, authoritative, and inerrant Word of God.

God: We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ: We believe Jesus is fully God and fully man, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose from the dead, and will one day return.

Salvation: We believe that salvation is a free gift of God's grace, received by faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by our own works or efforts.
