In "An Uncomplicated Church is an Unstoppable Church," Pastor Bart Blair examines how our culture unnecessarily complicates things—from sports to food to entertainment—and how this tendency has infected modern church life.

Bear Creek Community Church aims to embody these same principles by focusing on deep but practical Bible teaching, authentic missional community, shared meals and hospitality, caring for real needs, and passionate prayer. Pastor Blair challenges individuals to simplify their own faith journey, examine their church expectations, and embrace their role in the church's mission.
