Whether you’ve never heard of Jesus before, or you’re well-acquainted with Christianity, Jesus has something for you. His is the greatest love story ever told. And he wants to invite you into his story, too. Our hope is that you get to know him and find that his love surpasses everything else.
Are you new to Jesus?
Who is Jesus and why is he important?
The first man and woman walked with God in perfect relationship with him and one another. But Satan tempted the first man and woman, Adam and Eve. They doubted God’s goodness and love, disobeyed God, and rebelled against God. Yet God promised redemption.
In the climax of his plan to bring the world back into relationship with himself, God sent his Son, Jesus. As the exact representation of God and the perfect human, Jesus lived a life without sin. He loved those who hated him and cared deeply for the poor, the marginalized, and the oppressed. He allowed himself to be crucified in payment of the sins of the world. Three days after his death, Jesus rose physically from the dead, forever opening the path back to relationship with God.
How do I become a Christ follower?
No matter who you are, what you’ve done, where you were born or the color of your skin, Jesus is the way for you to have a relationship with God. Everyone’s invited. Everyone’s included. Everyone’s important.
If you think you’re an exception, you’re wrong. Jesus loves you. Yes… you!
Jesus invites you to come as you are. You don’t have to put your life together before you follow Jesus. His love will grow you as you walk with him, because he promises to help us thrive!
Becoming a Christ follower is simple: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,‘ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
(Romans 10:9)
That’s it! If you would like to become a follower of Jesus right now, you can pray this prayer: “Jesus, I’m sorry for the choices I’ve made that have kept me away from you. I believe you are the Son of the Living God and that you died for my sins. I want to know you and experience your love. Please help me live my life for you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

So, what next? How do you get to know God?
It’s hard to get to know someone you’ve never talked to. God gave us the Bible, which he calls His Word, so that we can hear from him and understand who he is. Even reading the Bible a few minutes a day can radically change your life. Don’t have a Bible? You can download a Bible app or let us know and we’ll get you one. And you can talk back to him by praying; he will hear you! Learn more about praying >>
