Who We Are


We’re simply a passionate body of believers that desire to see the kingdom of God increased in Oklahoma City. It is our hope that you would encounter and find the peace, purpose and plan of God for your life. We have experienced God’s presence in a real, practical, biblical way and are convinced that you also can experience the presence of God in a very authentic, biblical way. We believe and teach the whole Bible as the inspired word of God. We believe that what the 120 experienced on the Day of Pentecost in Acts chapter 2 can still be experienced today and is for you. We believe in passionately preaching the unchanging gospel to an ever changing world. We believe the principles of the word of God still guide us in our affairs today. We are a friendly, old fashioned, Apostolic, Pentecostal church that still believes in the ability of the power of God to change lives in a real intimate way.
