Grace is a church devoted to helping people connect with God and others through a relationship with Jesus Christ. We want to reach every nation and every generation for Christ.

We began a worship gathering at NCSU in 1994, and God has used this small church to help thousands grow in their relationship with God over the years. As a result, God has spun off campus and community church groups in Charlotte, Norfolk and their surrounding areas. People from Grace have spread regionally, nationally and globally to continue the vision & patterns started here, whether in Durham, New York, Germany, Kenya or beyond.

About Grace

  • The Greatest Commandment

    All from an Abiding love for God.

    "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” - Mark 12:30 (NIV)

    When you love someone, you think about them - what they value and feel. You think about meeting their dreams & expectations. As we grow in our love for God and go about his business, He calls us “friends” (John 15:15). Because of Jesus, God invites us to join Him by the power of the Holy Spirit in what He’s doing - the fulfilling of the Great Commission.

  • The Great Commission

    Our Mission from Here to the Ends of the Earth

    "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” - Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)

    Jesus was clear about the mission he left for his groups of disciples (which he called “churches”). And that mission is not finished yet.

  • The Good Shepherd

    Jesus - Our Lord, Our Model, Our All

    "that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
    -     Ephesians 4:12-13 (NIV)

    "whoever says he abides in [Jesus] ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.”
    -     1 John 2:6 (ESV)

    Every church shouldhelp every believer become like Jesus and do the things He did.

Why Not Here?
His Pattern Still Applies Today

Jesus’ disciples are multiplying faster across the globe now than at any point in history - primarily because of reproducing movements of simple churches. The U.S. has seen only a hint of this growth. At Grace, we work with others to help disciples and churches multiply locally and globally by...

ENGAGING those who don’t know Jesus

SHARING His Gospel message

GIVING extra time to anyone who wants to grow

GATHERING disciples into churches to become like Christ & engage the world

& RELEASING leadership responsibility to people guided by the Holy Spirit

… until there's #NOPLACELEFT for people to hear of Jesus.

Our Vision

At Grace, our heart & purpose is to multiply lovers of Jesus who gather as simple churches that reproduce new streams of simple churches to the 4th generation and beyond until all have heard.

Will you join us for a season to pursue this vision together?
