There are almost 8,000 promises from God to us in His word. Those promises are foundational to who we are!
The members of Promises Church are imperfect people that serve a perfect God. We believe God created each of us in His image, and was very intentional in our uniqueness, intricately fashioning us. God is no stranger to the trials we face in life. He knows that sometimes, we fail. But He never fails. Everything we go through is an opportunity to reveal the glory He placed in us according to His promises. Life can be rough, but we take joy in knowing that God promised we would win and that He would be present through it all. God is here for you and so are we!
Here, You Matter. Hopefully, you can see yourself here. We can and we're excited to meet you! Show less
