About Us

A church where you can be known.

We’re a growing, close-knit church community where people aren’t just faces in the crowd. We believe the heart of the gospel is God’s love — a love that knows us completely, pursues us faithfully, and invites us into relationship with Him and with each other.

At Narrative Church, we’re creating a place where that love is experienced through authentic community. A place where you can find belonging, build deep friendships, ask honest questions, grow in faith, and walk alongside others through every season of life.

What We Believe

Our greatest passion is that God has always been and will always be Love. He loves you passionately and without reservation. 

Throughout history, there have been many perspectives on who God is and what He’s like, but Jesus showed us a surprising and stark contrast to a somewhat-malevolent, retributive divine being just waiting to smite us when we mess up.

Jesus showed us a life marked by love, kindness, mercy, and grace. And Jesus claimed to be fully united with God - His very representation on earth (Heb 1:3)!

Each week, we gather to worship this God who loves us and to grow in friendship with Him and with each other. As we do so, we find ourselves becoming more and more defined by that incredibly kind love, resulting in transformation for ourselves and our world.

We align with the historic church defined by the Nicene Creed.

We are part of the Assemblies of God, USA.
