OASIS CITY CHURCH
OUR STORY
Have you ever been through a wilderness season in your life? A dry season where it felt like you may not make it to the other side? A season where you felt lost? We all have been there at one time or another, and for me, it was when I was 18 years old. Lost, hurting, and searching for purpose, I met a beautiful girl who invited me to church with her and her family. That girl became my wife and that church became my “oasis” – the place where I found refreshing community. The place where I found a renewed identity in Jesus. The place where I healed from my past and found direction for my future. The place where I finally found my purpose. It was then at 18 years old, that I first felt the call to plant a life-giving church. A decade later after serving in high-capacity youth ministry roles across the United States, God finally has said: “Go!”.February 2023, we will be launching a brand new church in Boise, Idaho called Oasis City Church. The reason why is simple – Boise is full of pioneers, entrepreneurs, and dreamers. But so many of them are wandering through life, gifted with grit but lacking purpose and direction.
We know that with God’s guidance, we can build a church that can truly be an oasis for the wanderer. A place where they can find refreshing, hope, healing, and renewal for their spirit and a place where they can find purpose, passion, identity, and direction for the God-given gifts on their life.
IN BOISE AS IT IS IN HEAVEN
OUR VISION
We see a church that truly is an oasis for people. A place of refreshing, hope, healing, and renewal for the city of Boise. People who have been trying to find their own way will come to know that Jesus is The Way as they encounter God in our weekend services, find authentic community in life groups, and start to discover God’s purpose for their life as they grow in their knowledge of God and service to the community around them.
