Ephesians 4:12-13 ”...to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up...”



A LETTER FROM MATT

The church is not here to save you, Jesus is.
The church is where we experience joy together.


Regardless of your past, present, current beliefs, sexual orientation, race, or socio-economic position, The CHURCH Fort Wayne is a safe place for you. Whether you call yourself a Christian, a skeptic, or have been put off by religious hypocrisy - this church is for you.

I don’t have the answers to all your biblical or spiritual questions. I hope you are ok with a leader who is far from perfect and who feels, as the apostle Paul says to be, “The worst among all sinners.” I have found answers in Jesus. I want to show you what I have found. After all, “Christianity is one beggar telling another beggar where he found bread.”

We started new church in Fort Wayne - not to call you out of bad behavior, but to call you into a journey. God doesn’t want you to be religious, He wants you to have joy. We will worship. We will learn from teaching. We will provide an incredible experience for your children to learn about the Bible. Jesus is who we will focus on.

All we have is Jesus.

The CHURCH Fort Wayne will communicate the unchanging message of Jesus to an ever-changing world!

– MATT

MISSION STATEMENT

Leading Southwest Fort Wayne into a deeper understanding of the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.


“...understanding of the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

A life studying the Word is more than a good idea; it's a command. It's also one of the core tenants of our church body.

We want to help you understand WHY you believe what you believe. Walking through scripture together, we uncover the truth, the history, and the beautiful reality of what it means to truly follow Jesus Christ.

James 1:22 ~ "Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says."

1 Timothy 4:13 ~ "Until I come, give attention to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation and teaching."

Matthew 22:29 ~ "But Jesus answered and said to them, 'You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God.'"


“...Southwest Fort Wayne…”

Many ask why God planted our church in Southwest Fort Wayne. Wasn't it already full of churches? The answer was simple; He's calling all of us back into an intimate relationship, building passionate, influential disciples for Christ right in the heart of our community.


Join Us

Whether under-churched, over-churched, or yearning for Biblical truth and education, we want you to join us. We can't wait to meet you, grow and worship with you.
