You Belong Here

We don’t care what you wear, how many piercings or tattoos you have, what candidate you voted for or even if you know anything about the Bible. We are a church filled with people just like you with every kind of story imaginable.

It’s dark, it’s loud, and it smells a lot like coffee. We love Jesus.
We love the Bible, and we love our church.


We’re having a ton of fun, but we aren’t just playing around.
We love what we get to do here.

We think you’ll love it too.

Upcoming events

  • Food & Fellowship

    THIS Saturday, June 7th

    Start the evening with the 5:00 PM service, then stay for delicious food & fun fellowship! This month is a Greek theme & Essential will provide the meat from Tazikis. If you’re able, please bring an appetizer, side, or dessert to share—but more importantly, bring yourself (and feel free to invite others)!

    It’s a wonderful chance to connect, unwind, and enjoy great company!

  • Father's Day at Essential!

    June 14th & 15th

    You won’t want to miss Father’s Day at Essential. Invite all the dads in your life to join us for food, fun, prizes and a great message! We want to honor all the men in our lives, not just the dads, so please make plans to join us for Father’s Day weekend!

  • Pray & Go

    Wednesday, June 25th

    We will gather at the front door of the church at 6:00pm sharp for this wonderful outreach to our church neighborhood! We'll organize into teams, grab some water and begin our walk down the assigned streets for this month, pausing at each home to offer our prayers. While we won't be knocking on doors, we'll leave a thoughtful card on each door, extending our support and letting them know they're in our prayers. We will finish by 6:45pm.

Last week’s Teaching:

Family By the Book: The High Calling of Wives

 

Pastor Tim delivers a message for wives as part of the Family By the Book series. He explores what the Bible has to say to wives, five lies from current culture about wives, how we can see Jesus through wives and practical application for wives today.
