A Relentless Pursuit of God and People
Discover a church where you can meet God, grow in community, and live with purpose.
Man’s great purpose is to worshipfully walk with God in the context of an authentic Christ-Centered community.
When we try to live any other way, life can get really difficult…
-
Maybe you’ve tried to piece life together on your own, but deep down you know something’s missing. You go through the motions, yet feel a quiet emptiness that no success or distraction can fill. You long for something real, something that grounds you when everything else feels shaky. At Relentless, we believe that’s not an accident. It’s God’s invitation to return to Him. You don’t have to keep wandering. Here, you can experience the joy of entering into relationship with the One who created you.

Raising kids today is hard. Between busy schedules, outside influences, and the weight of wanting to get it right, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and alone. You want your children to grow up with faith and values that will guide them, but you’re not sure how to give them that foundation on your own. At Relentless, you don’t have to. We come alongside families, equipping parents, surrounding children with godly examples, and creating spaces where the whole family can grow in faith together.
-
Moving to a new place can be exciting, but it can also leave you feeling uprooted. New streets, new schools, new routines, and sometimes no one who really knows you. That sense of belonging you had before feels far away. At Relentless, we understand what it’s like to long for connection. That’s why we’ve built a community where you can find more than just friendly faces—you can find family. A place to be welcomed, to grow, and to put down spiritual roots that last.
-
Life doesn’t wait until you feel ready. Struggles with work, relationships, finances, or health can come crashing in without warning. Without a solid foundation, those storms can leave you feeling anxious, weary, and unsure where to turn. But there is hope. At Relentless, we point everything back to Jesus—the unshakable rock who gives peace in the chaos. You don’t have to face life’s battles alone or unprepared. With God’s Word as your anchor and His people beside you, you can stand firm.
-
Maybe you’ve been a Christian for years, but lately you’ve felt stuck. You go to church, you pray, but you know there’s more depth, more purpose, more calling. That longing inside of you isn’t something to ignore; it’s God drawing you into deeper waters. At Relentless, we don’t just attend services together, we walk together in discipleship and live on mission. Here, you’ll be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to pursue God with your whole heart and make a real difference in the lives of others.
-
The pace of life can be daunting—work deadlines, family pressures, financial strain, and the quiet ache of wondering if this is all there is. It’s easy to carry the weight and lose sight of hope. But you don’t have to keep shouldering it alone. At Relentless, we believe Jesus offers rest for the weary and direction for the lost. You can find peace in His presence and clarity for your next steps. There’s a better way forward, and it begins with Him.

PLAN MY VISIT
We know that attending a new church for the first time can be a little scary. To make your experience enjoyable and comfortable, we wanted to include some answers to people’s most asked questions. We would love to prepare for your visit and meet you when you come, so let us know you’ll be joining us for the first time by clicking the button below!
How should I dress?
We are a “come as you are” church. Expect to see people in everything from t-shirts and shorts to suits.
What does childcare look like?
We believe that discipleship includes the whole family, so our worship services are family integrated. That’s a fancy way of saying that we believe there’s something powerful about kids seeing their parents raising their hands in worship, and having their Bibles out taking notes during the preaching. You’ll even see kids helping lead during our service by playing instruments, praying, and reading Scripture. We believe kids have gifts and can serve the Lord too!
With that said, we do provide a 5yrs and younger Kids experience during the service. All of our Kids Ministry team have been background checked, trained in security and safety policies, and have a heart for ministering to kids. Plus we have a security team as well. We don’t simply watch kids, we pray over them, and get them excited about Jesus. We take both the safety and discipleship of your kids seriously!
What’s the parking situation?
Whenever you arrive, you’ll see our guests parked on the front lawn. We ask everyone to park leaving just enough room for you to easily open your door and make your way to the sanctuary or fellowship hall. This allows us to get the most cars safely in the area.
What should I expect for the worship service?
We strive to provide a worship service where you will encounter God through song, prayer, preaching, and more. Typically we open with 3-4 songs, we have 30-45m planned for the message, and we’ll close with an opportunity for you to respond to God’s Word through singing, praying, or coming forward for prayer. Above all we believe in following the leading of the Spirit and submitting to what God is wanting to do - after all, from the singing to the preaching, it is a worship service to Him!
Are there opportunities for community and relationship with others on Sundays?
Most definitely! We believe the Church is a spiritual family. So we have coffee available before service in the Fellowship Hall where people can hang out before and after service.
But wait, I heard there’s food?
That’s right! We try to regularly work in lunch after some of our Sunday services. We believe there’s something special about sharing a meal with one another. So on the Sundays where it’s offered (follow us on Instagram to stay in the know), you’ll find our Hospitality Team cooking us up something great! During these lunches we try to have fun games for the kids and adults alike. So whether it’s bubbles or corn hole, we like to have fun together!
