“And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” –Ecclesiastes 4:12
God has placed a distinct call on Chapel Pointe to engage in Kingdom expansion. We have a God-sized vision to see 1,000 churches strengthened and 1,000,000 souls move from death to life across the world. Our team knows that we cannot do this work alone, which is why we started the Chapel Pointe Family of Churches.
The Chapel Pointe Family of Churches is a committed, collaborative churches choosing a path of interdependence to advance the gospel together. Through shared initiatives, people, and finances, like-hearted and like-minded churches will pursue Kingdom Expansion for the sake of the gospel.
Our Philosophy
At our church, we often talk about being a “partner” and not a “consumer”. By partnering with other churches, we keep our eyes up and out on our community, nation, and the world. Ultimately, our goal is to make churches healthy and to be a regional beacon and multiplying church throughout the nation. The foundation for this desire is rooted in a love for the body of Christ and for lost souls.
Many churches today try to do everything on their own through an autonomous mindset. This collaborative and partner-based model allows us to fight against an autonomy mindset because we believe we can accomplish far more together for the sake of the gospel than we could alone.
