Advent Bible Study
What does it mean to wait for God? This season’s study offers a series of daily readings focused on the themes of waiting, timing, peace and presence, with group sessions at 7pm Eastern on Mondays. All are welcome.
You’re in the right place
We’re an independent, affirming and progressive church serving metro Atlanta that is open, positive and inclusive. Our congregation comes from many spiritual backgrounds, but we agree on the following and invite you to come worship with us and experience God’s love in a whole new way.
God loves you unconditionally
God passionately desires a direct relationship with you, just the way you are.
Your relationship with God is paramount
No one, no institution, no thing, should come between you and God.
Your faith is between you and God
God does God’s best work when there are no intermediaries between you and God.
What we believe
God never gives up on you. So long as you have a spark, an ember of faith in your heart, God will do all that’s in God’s power to fan that into a full-blown bonfire. That’s how much God loves you. That’s God’s job.
How we worship
We worship outdoors as the Church Without Walls in Candler Park, throughout the spring, summer and fall. All are welcome.
Our ministries
From our founding we have focused on the needs of LGBTQ+ people and their allies, and that mission has grown to include housing, hunger and other challenges faced by the marginalized.
This week’s message

Meet our staff
We come from varied backgrounds and faith traditions but agree on one thing: All God’s children deserve to have a personal relationship with God that is supported, not defined, by the church.
