We offer:
A safe place to discern life's tough questions

Faith exploration is intended to be communal work. We learn from each other’s lived experiences, wisdom, and intellect. Diversity of age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, language, ability, and more are integral in the building of Christ’s Kingdom on Earth. Exploring faith together in Community of Christ isn’t about claiming to have all the answers – it’s about spiritual companionship as we journey into the unknown together. 

Safe spaces are made possible primarily due to two key factors: a refusal to worship and/or idolize scripture and a deep commitment to drawing the circle wider.

responsible scriptural interpretation

Much harm has been done to God's people through the misuse of scripture. When it comes to understanding meaningful ancient texts such as the Bible, we believe in the full picture. We do not accept that God's word was created to oppress their creation, and as such, historical context, genre, translation issues, and other factors must be considered.

Fully egalitarian & 2SLGBTQIA+ Inclusive

God does not make mistakes, and they certainly do not have any interest in the politics of our institutions. We are called to build communities representative of God's full creativity, and we believe we are at our best when our congregations and communities reflect that diversity.

We have a large presence across Michigan

Consider joining us in-person or online!

In addition to our brick-and-mortar congregations located across the state, we have a number of other opportunities from camps to online gatherings to volunteer efforts.
