Grow In Grace with Us!

Location: The intersection of Willis Rd and Hwy 154

It’s all about the Gospel

Forward Church is uniquely called to be a beacon of light for the Good News of Jesus Christ.

We are uncompromising in this: God is good. Not sometimes good. Not conditionally good. Fully, consistently, eternally good.

God has given us a clear mandate to preach the finished work of Jesus Christ and help people become firmly established in their New Covenant identity in Him.

The cross worked.
The resurrection worked.
Jesus accomplished what He came to accomplish.

Our mission is to help people live from that reality.

Grace That Transforms

God’s grace is not permissiveness to continue in sin.

Grace is the power of God working in your life.
Grace reshapes you from the inside out.
Grace transforms you at the heart level. Grace changes desires, renews your mind, and empowers you to walk out the new man you already are in your spirit.

You are not trying to become something you are not. In Christ, you already are new.

We are called to help people believe that… and live from it.

Not Control — Confidence in Christ

If you love God but feel worn out by church structures that demand you “get in line” with someone else’s vision, Forward may be home for you.

We are not here to control your life.
We are here to build you up in who you are in Christ.

You hear God better than you think, because His Spirit lives in you.

Our heart is to help you grow confident in Christ in you, to trust the Spirit’s leading, and to become a powerful witness of the Gospel of the Kingdom in your family, your workplace, and your community.

Strong Families. Strong Church. Strong Witness.

We have a strong focus on building up marriages and families.

Strong families build strong churches.
Strong churches become powerful witnesses of the transformative grace and saving love of God in our community.

We believe the Gospel should shape your home first — your marriage, your parenting, your everyday relationships. When grace transforms a household, it transforms a community.

Help Us Build

This building is more than a structure.
It is a lighthouse for the finished work of Jesus.
It is a place where hearts are renewed, families are strengthened, and people discover who they truly are in Christ.

We are building for the next generation.
We are building for freedom.
We are building for transformation.

And we would love for you to build with us.

Moving Forward

As we expand, we are not becoming bigger for the sake of being bigger.

We are committed to protecting the relational, local-church community feel that makes Forward so special. Growth will never replace connection. Expansion will never replace family.

We will still know each other.
We will still pray for one another.
We will still walk through life together.

The difference is simple — we’ll get to help more people experience this same grace-filled, identity-anchored, Spirit-led community.

As we grow, our heart stays the same.

Here are several key expressions of our vision as we expand:

Through making disciples, strengthening marriages, raising children in their identity in Christ, serving our community, equipping believers in the ministry of reconciliation, welcoming the lost, restoring those hurt by church experiences, setting captives free, and training leaders, Forward will continue to fulfill its God-given mandate:

Go Forward.

Just as Moses led Israel out of Egypt and then declared “Go forward” when the Red Sea stood in the way, we believe God calls His people to move ahead — even when the path looks impossible. We are committed to helping people overcome what feels insurmountable and step into the abundant life Jesus came to give.
