Values › Presence

When we look to the story of Scripture, we see God’s people consistently longing not only to affirm that God is everywhere, but to draw near to His manifest presence. From the tabernacle to the temple, from the wilderness to Pentecost, God’s people have yearned for His nearness. We share that longing. Throughout our lives, we seek to cultivate holy spaces—set apart in time and place—where we might commune with Christ and be formed by His presence.

We desire to be a community that follows Jesus in spirit and in truth. So as we gather to worship through song, listen to the Scriptures, and pray with and for one another, our aim is not simply a moving experience or a well-run service. Our desire is to become a people present to God, present to one another, and present to our city—in the name and way of Jesus Christ.
