We are not simply gathering for services.
We are forming people.

We believe the Kingdom of God is not theoretical — it is lived, embodied, and expressed in every sphere of life.
OUR VISION
we believe cities can be transformed
To see DeSoto transformed into a thriving city built on Kingdom foundations — a city where people flourish in every area of life and the presence of God influences every sphere of society.
We envision awakened hearts, restored families, mature believers, and lasting spiritual awakening that produces enduring cultural transformation throughout our community.
