    • The church needs to change

    • Time is short

  • AND YOU KNOW:

    • We are in a spiritual battle

    • We must act urgently

A tsunami of change is coming. Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and website (ChurchAwake.org). Never miss an update.

Who we are

We are followers of Jesus, making and multiplying disciples one heart at a time by decluttering church. 

We equip next-generation leader-believers to plant interconnected networks of disciples.

What we believe

We don’t have a doctrinal statement other than the Bible. Most of the time people just want to know if we are “legit,” meaning biblically sound. We affirm standard orthodox doctrinal statements like the Lausanne Covenant. Pastor David Ingrassia received his degrees (1984, 2012) from Dallas Theological Seminary. If that means anything to you, then you recognize we are theologically conservative. Yet, decades of ministry allow us to stretch far and love the church in all our distinctives.

Looking for allies

If you’ve made it this far, you already know it’s coming. The problem is that if we wait for the tide to go out, it’s already too late to make helpful changes. We’re trying to find similarly called believers now before the wave will hit. Be part of a community of people who share your calling.
