What We Do
Church Planting
Antioch Community Church is the beginning of our vision to start new churches that hold firmly to the truth and engage culture with the gospel. We believe church planting is ultimately the most effective strategy to make disciples and advance God’s kingdom. Antioch started public worship in the fall of 2008, and we are already looking ahead to our next church plant! AntiochCommunity.org
Leadership Development
We are looking to develop an army of young leaders who are willing to be a part of reaching the next generation with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
We offer:
