Lead Pastor

We all want lives full of meaning, purpose, and joy but often experience far less. More and more of us are anxious, alone, or depressed but cloak reality with virtual experience. Our lives can look good on the outside, while behind closed doors we lack connection to God and to each other. Life is not as we imagined it would be and for some the future looks bleak, even hopeless.

We have a different vision for our future…a vision of rebirth.

Our vision is one of hope and life at its best! We want our church to be a wellspring — for thriving children, joy filled marriages, young people fully alive, and vibrant community across generations. We take seriously the call to love our neighbors as ourselves, and seek to do so humbly and wholeheartedly. The fulfillment of this vision ultimately depends on Jesus. We trust that He will make us like Him, so that we can embody an authentic love of God that leads us to serve others.
