OUR MISSION:
Living Word is a grace-filled community where the messiness of life, the message of hope, and the beauty of Jesus converge.
| Messiness of Life |
Come as you are! We are a grace-filled community that accepts people as they are, wherever that might be on life’s journey.
|
| Message of Hope |
At Living Word, we practice the journey of following Jesus in practical ways. We present Christ's message of hope in easy-to-understand language that is applicable to the everyday messiness of life.
|
| Beauty of Jesus |
Many visitors have commented that they've sensed God’s presence upon arriving at Living Word. Perhaps that's because God is transforming our lives, making His presence very real to those who are committed to following Him. Our desire is that all who attend would experience the beauty of Jesus in a very personal and real way.
|
| Converge |
| There are many ways to connect with others at Living Word. We offer lots of different opportunities where you can come together with others in a smaller gathering than what our larger Sunday services offer. We're confident that there's a place in one of our small to mid-size communities for you. We understand that one size doesn’t fit all. At Living Word, you make the choice. |
