3 PILLARS of FORMATION
How God’s story in Scripture meets your story.
Becoming like Jesus for the sake of others.
Sharing God’s kingdom gospel with the world.
Know God’s Story
We are dedicated to faithfully pass on both the traditions and teachings God has revealed to all people through Scripture. Our desire is to know the story of God as well as to discover our place in that story.
SERMONS
Weekly teachings that immerse us in the story of God through Scripture.
Groups & Classes
Joining a small group or classroom bible study is an interactive way to discover God’s story and where you fit within it.
Develop Christ’s Character
Lives are being changed in and throughout our community. We trust that as we intentionally build our relationship with Jesus, engage in spiritual practices, and live as an authentic community, we will increasingly take on the character of Christ.
THE JOURNEY
A year-long spiritual formation and discipleship cohort. Through a combination of weekend retreats and monthly gatherings, we teach practical tools to deepen your relationship with God, with yourself, and with others.
EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY SPIRITUALITY
An eight week study that helps you unpack core biblical principles that will facilitate lasting, beneath-the-surface transformation in your relationship with Christ.
SPIRITUAL PRACTICES
Ways of intentionally building your relationship with God. Some are more concrete and knowledge-based, while others are more abstract and experiential. They both bring the daily stuff of life into a conversation with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
STORY GROUPS
Intentionally designed to facilitate spiritual and emotional awareness and growth in a small setting. Through the sharing of our stories we learn to be attentive to the Holy Spirit as we listen to what he may be doing in our lives and the lives of others.
Expand God’s kingdom
We see every sphere of life; family, friendships, work, our neighborhoods and our communities as opportunities to share, in word and deed, God’s deep love for the world.
Serving Opportunities
From creative arts to leading a small group of students, there is a place for you.
Third Spaces
Third Spaces are non-traditional groups that are steeped in mission, aligned by common values, and focused on bringing the Kingdom of God into their community.
World Missions
Because God desires the whole world to know his love, world missions is part of Monte Vista Chapel’s DNA. For over 50 years, we have developed, sent and supported missionaries who are serving throughout the world.
The Table Missional Cohort
Come with us as we spend a year exploring what it practically looks like for you to expand God’s kingdom in your family, neighborhood, community and even to the ends of the earth.
