A family of believers pursuing Jesus.
GR.Church is a place where lives are changed. Our church has served Grand Rapids, MI and its surrounding communities by preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ and we are witnesses of the gospel’s transforming power. We believe that God has a purpose for every life. Our desire is to help introduce people to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their personal relationship with Him.
Expect to Belong
Visiting a church can be intimidating but when it comes to our church, you can relax.
We’re Not Perfect
That’s probably why we make such close family, we are all a work in progress and seek to grow in grace. We are not here to evaluate you, but to welcome you. Don’t worry about having to measure up or fit in. We really mean it when we say that “At Our church you’re not only welcome, you’re wanted.”
We’re About a Relationship
We believe that the bible teaches that the most important thing any of us can have is a personal relationship with Christ. If you are new to that, that’s ok, we would love to show you where to start! There is no tradition, no structure, and no systems more important than your relationship with Jesus. That is our focus here at GR.Church; A Relationship, not a Religion.
We speak plain English.
We worship Jesus, study the Bible, and encourage each other in simple terms you’ll be able to connect to your daily life. We believe and teach what the bible actually says and why it matters. The truth in the pages of God’s word are as relevant today as when they were penned. Through the teaching and preaching of God’s Word we can help show you how to apply that Truth to life in the twenty-first century.
We’re Normal People
When you walk through the doors of out church you will find hard working people, just like you. People looking for encouragement, for help, for hope, and for a better understanding of God’s Word. We really are just regular, friendly people who have found some good friends who also have found faith in Jesus Christ.

Expect to find a place where you fit.
Nurseries, children’s ministries, and adult classes are all well-planned and prepared so that your Sunday is a well-invested time of personal growth.
Expect meaningful worship.
At our church, we worship Jesus. Our goal is worship, not entertainment, and we believe the service will touch you deeply.
Expect a practical Bible message.
Pastor Cody will teach and preach through a practical series that applies God’s wisdom to real-life situations. The Bible has the answers you’ve been looking for, and it’s essential for your journey through life.
Expect to be impacted for the better.
Our goal is simple—to love and encourage you. Whatever you’re facing, wherever you come from, whatever decisions you are up against—God’s word and God’s love will make a massive difference.
Expect to connect and grow personally.
Every week, our church welcomes guests from throughout the Grand Rapids area. Many of them are burnt out on either religion or secularism, and are sincerely looking for a truthful, spiritual alternative to both. We believe Jesus’ gospel is the only true answer for the longing of a person’s soul.
Our church is for the skeptic or the believer.
