RENEW FAMILY NIGHTS (Missional Communities) What happens on a ReNew Family Night? Sometimes we meet at a home where we share a meal, and hear from our Father; other evenings we eat out at a local restaurant or play at the park. It is simply sharing life where we eat, hang out, and lovingly challenge each other towards growth with the truth's of scripture. We are inclusive, everyone's invited to the party! We choose to live as family the way the first followers of Jesus did. This happens in both an organized manner as well as the regular organic happenings of life. We choose to imagine the world as it should be, bringing the Kingdom of God to earth. WE MEET ON SATURDAY EVENINGS FROM 5:30-7:30 EITHER AT A HOME, RESTAURANT, OR THE PARK. EMAIL US AND WE WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING THIS SATURDAY.

About ReNew

We are so glad you are checking us out - that means a lot! We are skeptical of religion, but certain of Jesus. The family of ReNew is being swept into a story bigger than us. We have found that following Jesus gives vibrancy to all of life. Our family doesn't claim to be perfect Jesus followers, simply living ones. Yes we are a church, but not in the brick and mortar sort of way. We recognize that for many, the traditional church has caused much hurt and is not seen as a safe and loving place. ReNew is a family of friends, both new and old intentionally loving each other and inviting others into our lives. Checking out a church can certainly be intimidating, this is why we have built multiple connection points into the regular rhythms of life where you can simply "be" with us. So whether at the park, in our homes, or at the local pub, we invite you to jump in. We are Family. We are Missionaries. We are Servants. We are ReNew.

MINISTRIES AND GROUPS

While many churches see the main connection point as the weekend service, we see that time as more of the "family reunion". The movement that Jesus built was based upon him giving access to his life, growing a spiritual family. These disciples learned to listen and respond to the voice of their spiritual Father in the same way Jesus did. Through the life giving power of Jesus, they multiplied his words, works and ways into others. The followers of "The Way" changed the focus of their life from themselves onto Jesus, living as family... 'UP'- in relationship to God, 'IN'- with those who were in the family of God, and 'OUT'- bringing the grace of God to those who were not yet in this generous family. At ReNew the phrase 'Go to Church' sounds just as strange to us as it would have to the first followers of Jesus. What's most important to us is that we live as a Gospel Family--- celebrating, playing, serving, blessing, loving, eating, and listening all with one ear on our Father, and one on those around us.

BELIEFS

God himself has come to rescue and ReNew all creation through the work of Jesus. In the same manner that Jesus left what was comfortable to him to take on the greatest rescue mission known to man (incarnation), we desire to live in his ways rescuing those around us from themselves. We believe that left alone people self-destruct. Jesus came to free us from ourselves and give us the power to do the same for others. We believe this message to be practical 'good news' to the world. It is the content that changes the world when it is lived out in context of everyday life. Incarnational community is the framework of life in which God has called us all to live... the best context for breakthrough!
