Who We
Are
We’re real church for real people
This means we want you to come as you are and be who you are. Regardless of what the world tells you that you are, you are welcome here.
We help people find Jesus and follow him fully.
Our mission is simple. Everything we do flows out of our passion to see people give their lives to Jesus and then point their lives in his direction. We believe this happens in three key environments: Gather, Connect, and Serve.
Gather
Our Sunday gatherings are designed to help people experience God and become followers of Jesus. We believe that they’re a catalyst that leads to spiritual growth, regardless of where we’re at on our journey. If you’re new to the whole church thing, you can join us on any Sunday throughout the year and hear the life-giving message of Jesus in terms you can understand and relate to. If you’re a believer, you’ll grow spiritually.
Connect
Throughout the week, we encourage you to connect in a Journey Group (J-Group) – a small group of people who get together to do something they enjoy together. Whether you’re taking your first steps toward faith or moving to the next level God has for you, connection is the relational link that fosters spiritual growth.
Serve
God gave you a purpose — and we’re committed to helping you discover it and live it out by making a difference. When you know why you’re here and what you’re meant to do, your life will never be the same. Our J-Team is filled with people of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences (just like you) who are using their gifts to serve others – and growing in their faith in the process.
Journey City
Reaching the 1.8 Million
What is Journey City?
Did you know there are 1.8 million people living within a 30-mile radius of our Newark location? It’s an area we’ve started calling “Journey City,” and we have a dream to reach every part of it with the hope of Jesus.
That dream is already in motion.
Every dollar given toward expansion this year will go directly toward helping us reach more people across Journey City—creating spaces where people can find Jesus and follow him fully.
We believe expanding our reach through new opportunities and future locations is the best way to meet the spiritual and practical needs of our region, now and for generations to come. You can help accelerate that vision by giving toward our Journey City expansion. Simply choose “Journey City” when you give.
Your investment will change lives. Together, let’s make a dent in the darkness.
