Functional Christianity explores the connection between our faith and daily life. With life going so fast, many are still seeking Biblical answers.
God has given us everything we need for life, yet sometimes things don’t work the way we planned or hoped. Sometimes the church isn’t doing a good job of making the connection. Gary has a unique way of presenting God’s answers to life’s questions. Let us help you see God as the solution to some of life’s toughest questions.

You’re invited!!
Ever feel like you're running on fumes? Between work, family, schedules, and everything else life throws at us, it's easy to keep pushing forward without stopping to ask where our energy is really coming from.
For the next two weeks, we're excited to have Gary Layne from Functional Christianity with us as we talk about what it looks like to live from God's overflow instead of our own limited strength. These conversations are for anyone who's felt tired, overwhelmed, or just ready for a deeper connection with God in everyday life.
We'd love for you to join us. Bring a friend, come as you are, and stick around for dinner afterward. There's always room at the table. 💡❤️
⏰ 5 PM + Worship + shared meal after
