About
Kingdom Community
Simply put, Kingdom Community is a fellowship of Christians on mission. We exist to stoke the passion of the people of God, and then empower, equip, and release them to bring healing and restoration to this city.
KC PRAXIS F.A.Q.'s
Can I just come to the larger KC gathering without joining a Kingdom community group?
Of course! The big gathering is there in part as a way for new people to connect. At the same time, we believe that the real action of the church is found when it is on mission. We hope the big gathering will inspire you, set a fire under you, and launch you. We hope you will quickly find and connect to a KC group, or even form a new one. As one of our core leaders recently said, "We exist to tell people they have permission to do great things!"
Are Children welcome at kc praxis gatherings?
Yes! Not only are they welcome, but we believe that children are a vital part of our mission. We love the sounds of children’s voices in all our gatherings, large or small. We understand that some parents need options for childcare, so we would like to provide that to you. Come a bit early to get your kiddo(s) acclimated. Let us know if you need anything.
Do I have to leave my church to be part of Kingdom Community?
Not at all. Most of the people that are a part of Kingdom Community are a part of already-established churches. There are many wonderful expressions of the Church in our city, and we do not exist to compete with them. We’re here to serve the local Church by encouraging and inspiring its people to find and pursue their calling to mission. If we accomplish our purpose, people won’t be leaving their church for a new one… new disciples will be made and our churches will benefit and grow. At the same time, some folks have found that the Kingdom Community has become their main place of Christian fellowship, and that’s OK with us as well. Our desire is to be a community of high creativity and low control, so we will not put limits on how people could/might experience it.
How is a KC group different than other church small groups?
KC’s are all about mission. The people meeting together in a KC aren’t meeting primarily for Bible study, close fellowship, and prayer. Those things are vital, but for a KC they serve the purpose of equipping the members of the group for the forward advancement of the Kingdom of God. This will, of course, work out in unique ways for each KC. Some groups gather around a shared vocation—for instance, one group is forming because all its members are educators who have the desire to work out the unique intricacies of living and sharing the Good News of Jesus in that environment. Other groups are gathered around a more specific mission—like the KC that is forming to establish a low-income preschool, or the ones that will support and equip neighborhood missionaries in Lodi’s Heritage District.
