About us
Welcome!
Welcome to Church of the Way — we're so glad you're here. Whether you're checking us out for the first time or you've called this place home for years, you belong here. We're a faith family built on the truth of God's Word, united in worship, and committed to walking through life together. No matter where you are in your journey — full of faith, full of questions, or somewhere in between — there's a place for you at the table. Come as you are, and let's discover together what it means to be loved by God and to love others well.
Scripture
We are firmly founded on the truth of God's Word. We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God.
The Gospel
We believe there is one true God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God who lived a sinless life, died for our sins, rose bodily from the grave, and offers salvation by grace through faith to all who trust in Him. We believe the Holy Spirit indwells and empowers every believer to live for Christ.
Our Mission
We are committed to loving God, loving people, making disciples, and sharing the hope of the Gospel as we eagerly await the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Youth Ministry
Youth is where students get real about faith — no fake answers, no pretending to have it all figured out. We dig into God's Word together, ask the hard questions, and point each other back to Jesus every time. Whether it's game nights, small groups, or late-night talks after service, we want every student walking through our doors to know they're loved, they matter, and God's got a purpose for their life. Our goal? Raise up a generation of students who don't just believe in Jesus but live like it — at school, with friends, everywhere.
Men's Ministry
Men's ministry is a place where you don't have to have it all together — just show up. We believe every man is called to walk in the truth of God's Word and grow into who Christ made him to be, but none of us do that alone. Here, we encourage each other through the hard seasons — job stress, marriage, fatherhood, doubt — and celebrate the wins together, too. Rooted in Scripture and built on real community, we're here to remind each other that we're not failures trying to be better, but sons of God being shaped by grace. Come as you are, and let's grow together.
