One Hope Church - Where faith and life connect Join us each Sunday for worship at 9:30am @ Ocean5 or from home.
One Hope Church is a multi-denominational Christian Church committed to the ministry and mission of Jesus. We serve and support various local, national, and international Christian efforts. We don't own our own building but rather we rent Sunday morning worship space at the Ocean5 social gathering place. This enables us to release additional funds toward our mission and ministry efforts as well as supports our vision to take the church to where the community gathers.

In this great, narrative sentence, there is one subject and a countless number of direct objects. Let us begin with the objects of the subject.
Faith in God is essential. Without faith, we are like ships tossed about on the waves. But if Christ was not raised from the dead, our faith is futile.
Luther wanted unity in the Church, but not if it meant sacrificing the very truths that upheld that Church. Three memorable, Latin slogans that came out of the Lutheran reform ...
