Who Are We?

Greater Life Church began as a small house gathering in 2006, rooted in devotion to Jesus Christ. Today, that same passion for intimacy with Him, hospitality, love, fellowship, and ministry
remains at our core.

For us, church is more than a place—it’s a mission to build people up in Christ. We’re here to help you break free from the weight of rejection, loneliness, fear, and anger, and embrace a life rooted in love, joy, peace, and purpose. We’re committed to empowering everyone to.

- Be Set Free
- Grow as Disciples
- Serve Others
- Live a Blessed Life

We are a Spirit-filled, Bible-based church passionate about Jesus and life-changing faith. Focused on prayer, healing, and God’s Word, we offer hope and purpose for today.

We welcome the broken, hurting, and lonely with open hearts and God’s compassionate love. At Greater Life Church, you’ll find a home where everyone is valued—no matter your story.

We are a mission-focused church, committed to making a difference locally and globally. Every member is encouraged to actively participate in missions, whether individually or as part of a group, by reaching out, caring, and transforming lives.

Our worship is a joyful and dynamic celebration of God’s love. Through heartfelt music and praise, we create an uplifting space to connect with God and inspire faith.

At Greater Life Church, we proclaim that salvation is found only in the precious name of Jesus. “There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)

We are committed to living out our Christlike identity, values, and purpose, reflecting His love in everything we do. Family is at the heart of our mission—we are pro-family, for family, and dedicated to building strong homes and a family-conscious church.

Our worship is a joyful celebration of God’s greatness, held to the highest standard of reverence and excellence. “Let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.” (Psalm 95:1-2; Psalm 96:1-4)

We live by faith, not by sight, trusting God in all things. (2 Corinthians 5:7) With dignity, honor, and self-respect, we carry ourselves as ambassadors of Christ, extending kindness and hospitality to all. “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some have shown hospitality to angels.” (Hebrews 13:2)

Our mission is to seek the lost, teach the saved, and release disciples into the world to share the Gospel. We actively care for one another, the hurting, the sick, and the needy, embodying Christ’s love in action.

We are passionate about supporting one another and loving one another as Christ loves us. We also honor God’s direction in giving, faithfully paying our tithes as Scripture instructs. (Leviticus 28:30; Numbers 18:21-24; Deuteronomy 14:22-29; Malachi 3:10)

At Faith Life Family Church, you’ll find a community deeply rooted in faith, family, and a love that reflects Christ’s heart.

We treat everyone with respect and strive to communicate in love (we practice love), using words that build up and encourage. (Ephesians 5:19)

As a Bible-believing church, we are grounded in God’s Word and committed to living it out daily. We study the Bible, apply its principles, and seek to live lives of integrity, character, and accountability as disciples of Christ.

We honor the sacredness of marriage, believing that God designed it as the foundation for healthy relationships, with intimacy reserved for this covenant.

Our mission is to make a global impact by touching lives, transforming nations, and sharing the Good News with the world. We are kingdom-focused, committed to fellowship, and utilize modern media to spread the Gospel and expand God’s kingdom.

We speak with kindness, even in challenging situations, reflecting Christ’s love through our actions and words. This love drives us to care for the needy, support missions, and make a difference locally and globally.

We enthusiastically support the church’s mission work through giving, serving, and participating, answering the call to “go and make disciples of all nations.” (Matthew 28:19; Matthew 24:14)

At Greater Life Church, we are passionate about building a faith-filled, loving community dedicated to living and sharing God’s truth.

About God
We believe in the one true God—the Creator and Ruler of the universe—who revealed Himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, distinct yet fully one and co-equal.

About Humanity
Humankind, both men and women, was created in God’s image to reflect His character and enjoy a relationship with Him. Despite having immense potential for good, humanity is marred by sin, separating us from God and His perfect plan.

About Eternity
We believe every person is created to live forever—either in eternal separation from God, which is Hell, or in eternal unity with Him through salvation, which is Heaven. These are real and eternal destinations.

About Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God, co-equal with the Father. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for all, rose again to conquer sin and death, and ascended to Heaven. He will return as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

About Salvation
Salvation is a free gift from God, available through faith in Jesus Christ. It cannot be earned through good works or self-effort but begins the moment we trust Him as Savior.

About Eternal Security
Through Jesus, believers have eternal life, secured not by their own works but by God’s grace and power.

About the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is God, co-equal with the Father and Son. He works in the world to reveal Jesus, lives within every believer from salvation, and empowers, guides, and transforms lives.

About Spiritual Gifts
We believe in the active work of the Holy Spirit, including miraculous signs and wonders, as confirmation of His power in believers’ lives and the mission of the church.

About the Bible
The Bible is God’s inspired Word, written by human authors under divine guidance. It is the ultimate authority for faith, life, and conduct, without error and eternally relevant.

About Worship
We were created to worship God. Worship involves every part of us—our minds, hearts, voices, and actions—giving Him the highest praise and glory.

About Relationship with God
A personal relationship with God comes through Jesus Christ and begins with a life-transforming experience of conversion.

About the Church
The Church is a community of believers, unified by faith in Jesus Christ. It is a place of shared life, mutual encouragement, and mission. Membership is open to all who confess Jesus as Lord and Savior.

About Freedom in Christ
We believe in the freedom found in Jesus Christ, celebrating the unique experiences and expressions of faith among believers. Unity is found in Him, even amid diverse views on theology, worship, or practice.

About the Mission
We are called to reach the world with the Gospel, touching lives, transforming communities, and making disciples of all nations. This mission extends through personal involvement and support for global outreach efforts.

About Dependence on God
We depend on the Holy Spirit, alongside the Father and Son, to empower, guide, and sustain our ministry and mission as a church.

This faith invites everyone to experience God’s love, grace, and purpose in a vibrant community dedicated to sharing His message with the world.
