By design, we practice church minimalism: we minimize doing ministry for you, and we maximize equipping you to do the work of ministry. At a very practical level, this means that rather than creating one-hundred programs or one-thousand ministries, our hope is to empower our people to use their time, talents, and treasures to be on mission in the city. Our philosophy of ministry is to simply get you into community, whether that be a community group or a fighter group. This frees our church to remain light on its feet without being bogged down by thousands of small tasks.

And our people aren't drowned by a sea of time commitments. That’s a good thing. Here’s a picture of our philosophy of ministry:

SUNDAY

GATHERING

When you visit on Sunday, our service includes preaching, singing, liturgy, and communion. We believe that all the nuts and bolts of Sunday Church should be Word-saturated and gospel-centered: in preaching, we hear the gospel proclaimed together; in liturgy, we pray the gospel together; in singing, we sing the gospel together; and in communion, we participate in the gospel together. These elements are crucial to being formed into the image of Jesus!

COMMUNITY

GROUPS

Community Groups are small groups. Like the name suggests, these groups exist to give our church real, authentic, biblical community. When you visit a community group, you will meet in somebody’s home to enjoy a meal, discuss the Bible, pray together and be a family together. Community Groups are the meat and potatoes of Frontier Church, and you can find one here.

FIGHTER GROUPS

Fighter Groups are the most intimate expression of our church, and they exist for discipleship. These are micro groups of 2-5 individuals of the same gender. Because of the uniquely intimate nature of these groups, there is no sign-up. Find somebody you love and trust in our church, and ask them if they have a fighter group.

HOUSE CHURCH

Six times a year, we cancel Community Groups for the week and funnel our entire church towards one of two house churches. House Churches are small worship nights that take place in our peoples’ homes, and because of the unique nature of worshiping together as a small scale, these form the spirituality of our church. House Churches pop-up during special times in the year.

INDIE MINISTRIES

Since our church leadership focuses only on Sunday church & Everyday Church, our church members are encouraged to do ministry in highly creative and unique ways that are independent from our church’s philosophy of ministry. These events are not planned, led, or funded by Frontier Church. From picnics to game nights to bonfire nights and everything between, we want to equip you for everyday mission.
