WHY A NEW CHURCH?
1. A Place to Belong
The first followers of Jesus found belonging with Him they didn’t find anywhere else. We want to recover that!
2. A Place That Does Better
Churches have failed. People are hurting in our community, in our world, and the church they’ve experienced has judged them rather than been for them.
3. People Need Tangible Hope
According to a recent United Way study, homelessness and housing are major challenges in Johnson County in addition to substance abuse, mental health, troubling household dysfunction.
In Johnson County, we have met with non-profit leaders who say their clients—people struggling with poverty, addiction, and a checkered past—want to go to church badly, but they’re afraid because they’re ashamed and think they’ll be judged. We want to meet people like this where they are to walk with them in their struggles.
We believe that the church’s role in any community is to bring healing and hope to those who need it most. When that is our focus, people find Jesus. We plan to do this by partnering with people, non-profits, and businesses in our community to bring about the greatest good for Johnson County, Indiana.
PARTNER WITH US
1. HANG OUT!
Attend one of our monthly community “hangouts”! These are fun, free, and family friendly events often held at a local restaurant. These events feature a local non-profit that will join us to briefly show us all the great work they’re doing in our community.
2. GROW
Jesus taught crowds but invested most of his time in 12 people. Life-changing growth happens in small, close-knit groups where people are real with each other and learn and practice Jesus’ way together. We currently have one group, and we’re launching a new group in April.
3. RECOVERY CHURCH
We are working with the Town of Whiteland and other groups to address addiction in Johnson County. Recovery Church will be a place to regularly find a meal, support, hope, and connection in a non-judgmental environment.
