The Mission of Soul City Church is to lead people into a transforming relationship with Jesus. We also know that not everyone in our community is at the same place in their journey. No matter where you are, life is full of questions, and while we can’t answer them all, we want to do our best to help.
The Transformation Path exists to empower and equip the Soul City Church community to take their unique next step and grow deeper in their transformational relationship with Jesus.
Whether you are exploring faith, looking to build a firm foundation or looking to be formed in the way of Christ, we believe that a life in Jesus is a series of next steps. This is why we created the Transformation Path so that you can take your unique next step.
Exploration
alpha
Looking for a safe space to explore God and ask questions? Alpha is the place for you.
At Alpha, people attend from all backgrounds, religions, and viewpoints. Participants come to investigate questions about the existence of God, the purpose of life, the afterlife, the claims of Jesus. Some people want to get beyond religion and find a relationship with God that really changes life. Others come for the close, long-lasting friendships that are built during the Alpha course. Many guests have never been to church, others may have attended church occasionally but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith or simply aren’t able to articulate why they believe what they believe. Everyone is welcome.
The next virtual Alpha session will start Tuesday, March 2nd.
