The Grove Community Church Podcast

Welcome to The Grove Community Church (formally known as Lake Cities Community Church). We are a nondenominational Christian church in Rowlett, TX. This podcast is a place where you can listen to our sermons and other content. We pray it will be an encouragement to you and your walk with Jesus Christ. Our mission is to win people to Christ, build them up into healthy and balanced believers, and send them out into our community, country, and to the ends of the earth to spread the love of Jesus. We hold tightly to what we believe, but we will not let grey issues define us as a people. That means wherever you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome here. Ephesian 4:4-5 "There is one body and one Spirit- just as you were called to the one hope when you were called, one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all." Our desire is to win people to Christ, build them up into healthy and balanced believers, and send them out into our community, country, and to the ends of the earth to spread the love of Jesus. We believe that as we fulfill our mission, we will move closer to our vision: To be a mid-sized church serving the community around us and to be a multigenerational church with a next-gen lean. To be a mid-sized church serving the community around us: We are in the middle of building a new facility on what once was a field next to our current building. This new facility, combined with the current building will allow us to expand our ministry capabilities by partnering with two for-profit companies to invite the community into our facility every day of the week. We believe God is leading us to expand to a church of 300-400 people. This growth will allow us to better serve Rowlett and the surrounding community. To be a multigenerational church with a next-gen lean: We have a passion and love for all ages and demographics at The Grove. We truly desire to be a multigenerational and multicultural church and we believe we can best do this by leaning toward the next generation. What this means is that we use accessible language, music, graphics, and outreach events that we feel will be appealing and attractive to the current generation. As we do this, we are committed to holding tightly to the truths found in the Bible and to loving all of our members equally, regardless of age, race, or gender.
