Visiting a new church can feel intimidating. Will I be accepted? Do I need to know a lot about God or the Bible? Relax. You'll be welcomed just as you are. Whether you're new to church, exploring faith or looking for a church home, we're glad you're here, and questions are welcome at any stage.
We're not perfect people. We're people who believe God loves us, has a purpose for us, and wants us to live in community.
We're a lively, friendly church made up of singles, families, babies, kids, teens and adults of every age. We're more than a congregation. We're a family, and we'd love for you to experience it.
Join us for a Sunday or Wednesday service. We believe God's Word can change your life.

Our week centers on three anchor services. Each one has its own purpose.
Worship and practical Bible preaching, with kids programs at both services. Whether you're exploring faith for the first time or have walked with God for years, you'll be encouraged. We believe God meets and speaks to people here.
A time for our church family to grow closer to God and each other, going deeper into the Word. All-Campus Worship meets the first Sunday and Family Prayer the third Sunday, in Cooper City.
Sunday is for inspiration; midweek is for instruction and connection. It happens in two ways through the year:
Both campuses gather at Cooper City at 7 PM for Life University, a relaxed night of practical Bible teaching and real friendships, plus classes for students and kids.
Explore Midweek →Twice a year, midweek moves into small groups that meet in homes, parks and coffee shops across South Florida, on different nights of the week. Several still meet Wednesdays at the Cooper City Campus.
Find a Small Group →Want to make friends faster? Join a small group or find a place to serve. Serving is one of the best ways to grow.
Whatever you're comfortable in. All styles are welcome. Many of our members wear their Sunday best as a sign of respect and reverence for God, but it's never required. Wednesdays are more relaxed, since many people come straight from work, school or home.
An hour and fifteen minutes to an hour and a half on Sunday mornings.
No. We're glad you're here, but you won't be asked to stand or speak. Sit wherever you like.
Not at all. Giving is how our church family supports the ministry. As our guest, please don't feel any pressure.
Kids programs run at both Sunday morning services, and there are kids classes on Wednesday nights too, all led by screened volunteers. A greeter will point you to the children's area. Parents can review our Children's Safety, Access & Allergy Policy anytime.
