Our
Goals:
-
We
are a group of friends who want to walk with Jesus and others
on the journey of life. We believe that when you are living
this way you are choosing to be on the Pathway.
-
We
are a group of friends who are experimenting with what it means
to BE the church, not just go to church. Church is not
a place, or a service, or a time of the week. "Church"
is people. The first church was such a tight group of friends
that they hung out together regularly and took care of each
other. It wasn't a religious or ritualistic thing to them. It
was all about relationship (See Acts
2:42-47). That's what we want to be. We want to help people
walk with God and others on the journey of life.

mode we're using to try and implement these ideas.
Our
Vision:
To
become a diverse group of Christ followers united in love and purpose.

Our
Beliefs:
Some
the main truths we believe...
- That the
Bible is God's word and reveals his design and plan for
humanity.
- That there
is only one true God who's revealed himself in 3 persons: Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit.
- That Jesus
was God in the flesh - fully human and fully man.
- That humans
were created good and because of sin are now less than
what they should be. We have been separated from complete
relationship with God and separated from our purpose.
- That the
only way back into a relationship with God, to be forgiven and
able to reach our full potential is through faith in Jesus
as Lord and Savior. He lived the perfect life we couldn't.
He took the punishment for our sins by dying on a cross
and he rose again from the dead.
- In baptism
by immersion as a public demonstartion of our fath and holy
communion as the way Christ told us to remember him.
Our
History:
On
January 23, 2005 at 9:30am at Spangenberg Theatre in Palo Alto,
we came together for our FIRST public gathering.
Come be a part
