FORUMS
Forums are held at set times throughout the year. We host regular lectures, panel discussions, and readings that stretch our minds and deepen our understanding of who Jesus is and the life we have in Him.
Too often we fail to make space to ask hard questions, wrestle with Scripture, or hear opposing ideas. We are convinced that we are supposed to live by faith, but that doesn't remove the responsibility to have an informed belief. This formational value leads us to hold the conviction that theology matters. Peter tells us to grow in our knowledge and understanding of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (1 Peter 3:).
Through these forums, and as a part of our formation process, we seek to do just that. IT isn't about information, or the ability to win and arguement, it is about know the depth and breadth of how Good He is. When we know Him, we want to know him even more.
SUNDAY GATHERINGS
Sunday is not the main event of church life — it is the place where we create wonder about what life in Christ looks like from the overflow of God’s work in our lives throughout the week.
We don’t come crashing into Sunday hoping to “get something” that will make the next week better. Instead, we gather as one family to proclaim — in testimony and in faith — who God is and what He is doing in our individual lives. This is not a moment of passive observation. It is the space where we celebrate what God has done, worship with one voice, laugh together, pray for one another, and participate in the traditions that anchor us in God’s life-giving story of making all things new.
Here we are formed by doing what the people of God have always done — coming together as one body to remember who God is, who we are, and what He is doing in the world — encountering the presence of Christ being shaped more deeply into His image. Bring your story, your questions, and come ready to see the good life that is found in Jesus.

FORMATION
RESOURCES
The church is not primarily a teaching institution, social club, service provider, or event venue. It is the embodied presence of Christ in a community. It is a colony of heaven on earth.
Every spiritual discipline, every group meeting, every ministry addition, and every sermon should be evaluated by this standard: Does this help people become more like Jesus for the sake of others?
GATHERINGS
Hebrews (10:25) tells us not to neglect “the assembling of ourselves together” (episunagōgē in the Greek — a full, complete gathering, especially a Christian meeting for worship). In these gatherings, the church family comes together as the Body of Christ to worship, encourage one another, and stir up love and good works.
This complete gathering of God’s people is where transformation begins. Here we encounter the living God in worship, renew our shared vision of life in the Kingdom, and begin to imagine what it looks like to be formed into the image of Christ for the sake of others. While gatherings are not the sole purpose of the church, they serve as both the precipice and the culmination of our life in Christ — a weekly rhythm that anchors, renews, and sends us out.
At our church, we have established three regular gathering moments that support this formation process:
