Church Life

The worship team in red shirts on stage

Worship together

Everyone on our worship team is a regular church member with a job or classes during the week. They practice on weekends. They’re not pros, but they really mean it.

Study the Bible together

Every Thursday night there’s an online Bible study, and small groups also meet in person. We go through a passage bit by bit, and when something doesn’t make sense, we talk it through. You don’t need to know anything about the Bible to join.

Spend time together

On holidays we get together: dumplings and spring couplets at Lunar New Year, mooncakes at Mid-Autumn, a big meal at Thanksgiving. Most Sundays people stay for lunch after the service, too. A lot of us live far from family, so it’s good to have people around.

“The church of the living God,
the pillar and foundation of the truth.”

1 Timothy 3:15

This verse is where our church gets its name.

Our Values

Our mission is to glorify God by preaching His Word, building up one another’s faith, and bringing the gospel to people who don’t yet know Jesus.

1

Wholehearted love for Jesus

We don’t want a faith that just goes through the motions. We want to be people who truly love Jesus and follow Him for life.

2

Expository preaching

On Sundays we come to hear from God. Our sermons explain the Bible passage by passage, because only God’s Word can change a heart.

3

Real community

God brought us into His family, so we’re brothers and sisters. We share meals and pray for each other, and we talk about more than the weather and work.

4

Sharing the gospel with love

Jesus looked at the crowds and had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. We want to bring our friends to that Good Shepherd.
