Our Beliefs

We are a people of expansive faith.

Belief can be a scary thing to talk about when it is used to keep people out. Many of us have left unhealthy faith spaces, or have grown out of previous places we used to belong to. Many are looking for a community of faith that is more spacious and more authentic, one that makes more room for wondering, complexity, doubt, and pain, while standing with those suffering injustice and fighting for joy. We see belief as dynamic and the faith journey as different for each person, so we encourage questions and creativity, honesty and learning from our differences, ultimately trusting that God is doing the work of shaping us each into who we are created to be.

You’re invited - to healing & belonging, just as you are, wherever you are.
