GET FIRED UP!

This is the best time to be alive, and we want to see you fired up, full of love, and passionate for Jesus! We know searching for a new home-church can be a challenge for various reasons; but, we also know that when the Holy Spirit leads you to the right church family, our lives are enriched and changed forever. Growing a garden, building a house, raising up a family, and empowering community are just some of the terms we use to define who we are and what we do.

Transforming a region comes from transforming people back into the image and likeness of Christ. This happens by teaching them identity and empowering them to walk in the Spirit at all times. Through supernatural power and authority from heaven on earth and through the fullness of Christ living in us, we can fulfill the covenant promises of God through generational legacy and possessing the gates of cities and nations.

SENIOR PASTORS

DAVID BENDETT

David’s testimony reflects the power of God’s redemptive grace to change a person’s life. A true ‘rags to riches’ story, David went from a lifestyle of intense self-gratification to one of genuine passion and care for the well-being of others.

David has his Associate’s Degree in Public Relations from Miami Dade Community College, and his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Organizational Relations from Oral Roberts University. David and his wife Amber also own two successful coffee shops in Corpus Christi and Port Aransas and have two amazing young children, Cadence and Zion.

AMBER BENDETT

Amber lives life full of creativity, vision, and love for Jesus! Her life, however, has not been one void of heartache. Losing her daughter, Eden Grace, at 32 weeks truly marked and transformed her life forever. It was then that she looked for Jesus in the midst of sorrow and found Him in a very real and tangible way. And, from such loss came such beauty and life… Areas of Amber’s gifting that had been dormant are now alive and being used to carry on Eden’s legacy—A legacy of Christ’s beauty expressed through her creativity. From remodel, design, event decor, writing, painting, and photography, Amber now lives, speaks, and writes with raw vulnerability and transparency with the intention of inspiring others to do the same. Most of all, she longs to see others living out their days in the full freedom Christ died for us to have.

ELDER

What is the role of an elder? Our Elders are those that are seasoned in their faith and walk in wisdom and integrity. They are entrusted to give spiritual guidance and oversight to the church-body as a whole as the Lord leads. They aim to hear where the Lord wants to take us as a church body as they lean into the Lord through prayer and intercession.
