CHURCH OF POD
Honest conversations about real life and faith – helping Christians draw closer to God, especially when the questions (or answers) are hard.
Do you believe there are things you should already understand about your faith in Christ but are afraid to ask? Maybe you’re just getting started and it seems that everyone around you is miles ahead. Or attending church simply doesn’t work for you right now.
If so, you're in the right place.
Welcome. I’m Steve and I invite you to join us at Church of POD, where together we’re leaning to love God, not perfection.

In a world filled with so many ways to communicate and connect, why are so many people suffering from extreme loneliness and isolation?
Our Foundational Scriptures:
“I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me". (John 14:6)
That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. (Philippians 3:10-11)
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known. (John 1:17,18)
Our Core Values:
Be grateful, own your mess.
Our Vision:
- Profound Simplicity
- Confident Humility

John 14:6-18 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV)
Jesus said to him (Philip), “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him. Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it. “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you".
