The words 'Growth Track' in a bold black font on a light background with a topographic map pattern. Below it reads 'Designed for growth. Built to launch.'

A movement of hope in our neighborhoods. That’s what we’re asking God to do.

So what do we do?
We position ourselves to participate in that movement—by Gathering Faithfully, Growing Intentionally, and Going Missionally.

The Growth Track is our plan to prepare you to GO—to live sent and help guide our neighbors to a hope-filled future.
It’s how we at Christ Community live out Jesus’ call in Matthew 28:19 to “go and make disciples.” Courses designed for growth, and built to launch.

Alpha is a place to invite friends and explore questions of life, faith, and meaning. Each week there are engaging and helpful videos that ask questions about faith and create conversation in a judgment-free environment.

If you are curious about life, faith, meaning, and want to belong to a place where other people are asking similar questions, then the Alpha Course is for you!

Alpha is every Thursday from 6:00pm - 7:30pm, January 15 - March 19.

Rooted is a ten-week journey that helps you grow as a disciple of Jesus through daily rhythms and weekly conversations in community. Each week you’ll engage Scripture, reflect on your story, pray with others, and step into practices that open you to God’s work in your life.

If you’re longing to grow, connect, and live your faith with intention, Rooted is your next step. Rooted meets weekly for ten sessions, with two group experiences and a final celebration at the end of the course.

Where does it get you?

We are desperate to experience a movement of Jesus-saturated hope across the southwest suburbs, in our lifetime. 

We imagine a future where our church isn’t defined by a building, but by people living the hope of Jesus in their everyday places – in homes and schools, on job sites, in coffee shops, and anywhere their feet carry them. This is the heartbeat of our Growth Track, forming Partners who live on mission and fueling the movement of Jesus in the southwest suburbs and beyond.

Planters

As we live out our value to Go Missionally, Missional Communities are the primary way we help people guide their neighbors to a hope-filled future throughout the southwest suburbs and beyond. Planters bring the love of Jesus into their neighborhoods and networks. This is what it means to live on mission as the church, just not at church.
