Joining God in restoring all things – in our lives and in our world.
Our Name
A name says a lot... well, at least ours does. The name Town + Field Church represents what we strive to be as a faith community and how we seek to fulfill our mission of joining God in restoring all things—in our lives and in our world.
As a "Town", it is our hope to be a place of authentic community. This is a place where you can belong, knowing that you are loved and valued, and also participate, knowing that the mission of this Town depends on all of us working together.
As a Town, we each live our lives in the "Field" where we work, interact with our neighbors, raise our families, and live out our day-to-day lives. It is in these spaces that we are called to walk in the way of Jesus in the everyday moments.

Our Beliefs
While the topic of faith is extremely broad, our foundational beliefs are quite simple. The following are our basic beliefs.
God
Sin
Jesus
God created the entire universe, including humans. His desire is for all of us to exist in relationship with him.
We have all chosen to live contrary to what God created us for and this has broken our relationship with him.
Jesus died on the cross to take the punishment for our sins. Because of his grace, we can become his followers.
Holy Spirit
Bible
Church
Followers of Jesus are empowered to live for him because they have been filled with his Spirit.
This ancient text is inspired by God and is the primary way that God speaks to us and invites us to participate in his story.
A global community of faith started by Jesus that works together to follow Jesus and share his good news.
