Lepers, Loons and Losers
Join us for a 12-part Bible study, “Lepers, Loons and Losers: The Outcasts of the Gospels,” Mondays at 7pm Eastern starting April 28.
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 in the spring, summer and fall — and indoors in Decatur during Advent and winter. You can check this Sunday’s service location in our weekly worship bulletin.
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
Colossians 3:12-14
So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.
Monday night Bible study
Join us at 7:30pm Eastern each Monday for Bible study via Zoom.
Midweek meditation
Join us at 7pm Eastern each Wednesday via our Facebook Group for an uplifting message to get you through the rest of your week.
Sunday worship
Why Believe?
Second Sunday of Easter | Sermon: Vicar Alyce Keener | Reading: John 20:19-31 Jesus said, “So, you believe because you’ve seen with your own eyes. Even better blessings are in store for those who believe without seeing.” (Verse 29)
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.
Rev. Judy McVey
Associate Pastor
