moving the finish line

Too many churches fall for false finish lines: budgets, buildings, and butts in seats.

But Jesus calls us to make disciples.

Our goal is a long-term culture shift of people embracing this mission.

3,500 by 2035

We aim to activate every Midtown disciple’s personal and collective calling to build Christ’s Church and impact their circles of influence.

We want to see 3,500 people committed to being disciple-making-disciples. That's not just people in our church, but anyone impacted by and on board with our vision.
