Leading people to the God who looks like Jesus.
Grantham Church exists to love and worship God and disciple people in Christ, the Scriptures, and the Spirit’s power to radically love our neighbors and our world.
DISCIPLE
Jesus pursues us and calls us to follow him. Therefore, we are committed to worship, spiritual formation, and making disciples who declare and demonstrate God’s glory and grace. We do this by “working the spaces” of public, social, personal, and intimate relationship.
SERVE
Jesus demonstrates a life of service. Therefore, we help our members understand the way they are uniquely created by God and identify opportunities to serve in the church and in the broader community.
WELCOME
Jesus welcomes us to his table and into his family. Therefore, we do the same and extend a warm welcome to everyone we meet. We do this by loving strangers, neighbors, and enemies.
UNIFY
Jesus is the Son of God in loving union with the Father and Holy Spirit. Therefore, we promote and pursue diversity in our leadership and congregation, embrace convergent worship, and model third-way unity that bridges the divides of political and theological differences.
WITNESS
Jesus fills us with his Spirit and sends us out to be his ambassadors. Therefore, we equip and empower our congregation to lovingly share their faith, invite people to join us in worship, and lead people to the God who looks like Jesus.
At Grantham Church, we seek to be:
INTERGENERATIONAL
Children, youth, adults, and seniors worshipping together.
CONVERGENT
Blending the traditional/ancient with the modern and contemporary.
THIRD WAY
Addressing injustice around us in a non-partisan way.
