Our Story

153 = SONSHIP

CHURCH is not a building but a Body of Christ-Image-Bearers, and we were ALL "churched out" with Social Programs, Traditions of men, and an Old Covenant Judeo-Christian framework of God!

We grew organically through a need to DEconstruct out of all False Beliefs developed by religious institutions and then to REconstruct into a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the God of the Bible.

We specialize in unpacking "cognitive dissonance" that religion causes and help people uncover and discover Universal Truths of Father, the Creator of the whole world.

We help people walk in responsibility and accountability for their own lives as well as providing a safe & healthy place to dialogue, live out, and experience what we are all passionate about: FATHER!

Coming Together

The Spirit of God is bringing people from all backgrounds (churched & unchurched) to unify under a CHRIST-CENTRIC lifestyle that is based on Biblical principles. Christians are losing their faith due to a mis-reading, mis-teaching, and mis-understanding of an ancient text, the Bible. Christians are leaving the church because they no longer believe the Traditions of Men, but don't know where else to go.

This is why are are here because we are REDEFINING the "church life" into a community of "zoe life". We have all undergone a stripping away of the old forms of fear-based theology in order to find the original message of a holy love-based reality.

Understanding the times that we live in, we recognize that God is here among us and lives in us working through our human lives by the Spirit of God, Himself. He is not found in temples or buildings, but was always in the here and now.

It's good to be human. It's good to walk with God. It's good to know Father and acknowledge Him to show up into every part of our lives. If this journey describes you, then you're at the right place.
