ZOE is real. It isn’t a place where people fake it and pretend like life is perfect. We embrace the struggle because sometimes life is a struggle. Sometimes life is hard. Sometimes things don’t go the way you plan, or even the way you want. It’s OK to be honest about that. God can handle it. And so can we. But we also embrace the struggle of faith. We don’t believe in spiritual platitudes. We don’t believe that faith means there aren’t questions or wrestling. Instead, we encourage the wrestling because it produces a more complete and grounded faith that can actually endure.
ZOE is life. In fact, that’s what ZOE means. But not the everyday, ordinary kind of life. It’s the abundant, overflowing, eternal, spiritual life that only comes from Jesus. That’s why we say we are gospel centered. Gospel means good news. And the good news isn’t a religious system or lifeless rituals. In fact, the good news isn’t even about what we do, it’s about what God has done on our behalf. It’s about the life he’s made available through the saving work of Jesus Christ. Jesus said this, “The thief comes only to steal, and to kill, and to destroy, but I have come that they may have life (ZOE) and have it to the full.”
ZOE is together. Church isn’t a building, an event, or an institution. It’s a family. We don’t go to church. We are the church. Our goal isn’t to build a large audience to assemble each weekend. Our goal is to be a community of people who genuinely love and serve one another. A diverse community where people of all ages, cultures, and socioeconomic standings join together to give the world a picture of what heaven looks like. And together, do whatever we can to take the hope of Jesus to our families, friends, communities, and the world.
Sounds refreshing, doesn’t it?
Sunday service gives you the opportunity to worship God with the ZOE family, grow in your own relationship with Him, and invite others to join you. The environment allows you to learn, celebrate, and refocus. If you miss a service, you can join us via livestream or WATCH online at a later time.
Watch LiveOne of the best ways to grow in your faith is to begin serving. Not only does it help you live like Jesus, it’s a meaningful way to get involved at ZOE and meet new people. It will also help you transition from seeing ZOE as a place you attend into a community you are a part of.
Next StepYour faith was never meant to be lived out alone.

We offer opportunities to connect with groups throughout the year.

1. The Bible is the inspired Word of God. The Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct.
2. There is one true God. The one true God has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent "I AM," the Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind. He has further revealed Himself as embodying the principles of relationship and association as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
3. The divinity of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God and lived his life on earth fully God and fully man. He died and rose again and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father. One day he will return again.
4. Every person is valuable. All people are created in the image of God and have eternal value.
5. The fall of mankind. Man was created good and upright; for God said, "Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness." However, man by voluntary transgression fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.
6. Salvation is only found in Jesus Christ. There is no other means of salvation except through the saving work of Jesus Christ. This salvation is received through repentance and by placing one’s faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
7. The Church’s mission. The Church is a movement of God’s people whose mission is to fulfill the great commission and embody God’s kingdom here on earth. We glorify God by bringing the message of salvation through Jesus Christ and making disciples.
