What if there was a church that didn’t place any pressure on you to “sign up” but allowed you to quietly listen? What if there was a church that celebrated the presence and participation of children of all ages, a church where you could dress casually, quietly enjoy the upbeat music, and be challenged to think about the important issues of your life? What if there was a church that was not afraid to hear your doubts and be challenged by your questions? What if you could find that kind of church? We believe you just did.
