A new church community
A missionary church for Middle Georgia
Gathered by Jesus. Formed by the Gospel. Sent for the good of our city.
The Story
God's Mission Is the Story of the Bible
From Genesis to Revelation, God is restoring all things through Jesus. The church is invited to join that mission — as witnesses, servants, and ambassadors of His kingdom.
Act I
Creation
God makes a world filled with His presence and places His image-bearers within it to cultivate and keep it.
All things were made through Jesus, and for Him.
Act II
The Rebellion
Humanity reaches for control and abandons their identity, breaking every sacred space — home, work, relationships, heart, and creation. Yet God refuses to abandon us.
These are the broken spaces Jesus will enter.
Act III
The Covenant
"Look up at the sky and count the stars," God tells Abram. "So shall your offspring be" (Genesis 15:5). Though Abram is childless, God promises descendants beyond numbering. And when the covenant is made, God binds Himself to keep the promise.
Through this promise, God prepares a people for the coming King.
Act IV
The King
The King of Kings comes near — teaching, healing, eating with sinners. He is rejected, and dies. But the stone rolls back, light breaks through the storm, and the new age dawns over a world that thought it had buried its God.
The risen King's first move is to send: "As the Father has sent me, so I send you." (John 20:21)
Act V
The Overlap of the Ages
The Spirit falls, and the church is born — sign, foretaste, and instrument of the kingdom. We live in the time between resurrection and return, as God gathers a people from every nation under heaven.
This is our moment in the story. This is where we live and why we plant.
Act VI
All Things New
The ending is already written: God dwelling with His people, the city made whole by His presence — every home, workplace, school, and neighborhood renewed as sacred space.
We plant in the direction of that ending.
The Story Continues Here
Middle Georgia is our mission field. Not across an ocean, but across our cul-de-sac.
Tens of thousands of neighbors with little or no connection to a local church.
The Response
Families saying yes to God's Mission
We're Isaac and Jessica Hardy. Middle Georgia is our home, and we believe God is calling us to plant a missionary church here. Alongside us are families who share that conviction and are helping build this community from the beginning.
"The only hermeneutic of the gospel is a congregation of men and women who believe it and live by it."

Our Convictions
What Defines Us
We gather for joy, but are sent for mission.
The gospel spreads most naturally through everyday relationships.
Every person should be known, not just seen.
God is the audience of our worship.
We are a called-out people, faithful witnesses in a foreign land.
We multiply what we have been given.
We refuse to follow Jesus alone.
The Invitation
Come to Vision Night
Before there's a church, there's a table and a story. Spend an evening with us — hear where this is headed, meet the people behind it, and ask anything.
Can't make the 15th? Email us and we'll keep you posted.
Gathered for joy.
Sent for mission.
John 20:21 — "As the Father has sent me, so I send you."
