The Bible’s Greatest Chapter?
Romans 8, often referred to as one of the greatest chapters in scripture (and the source of one of our own core verses), is the subject of our weekly Bible study, Mondays at 7pm Eastern via Zoom. 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
Mark 10:14-16
“Don’t push these children away. Don’t ever get between them and me. These children are at the very center of life in the kingdom. Mark this: Unless you accept God’s kingdom in the simplicity of a child, you’ll never get in.” Then, gathering the children up in his arms, he laid his hands of blessing on them.
Monday night Bible study

Sunday worship
Covenants of Love
Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost | Sermon: Lance Helms, Director of Communications | Reading: Mark 10:2-16 Pharisees came up, intending to give him a hard time. They asked, “Is it legal for a man to divorce his wife?”
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.
