History
Life began in our living room in the fall of 2003 with four adults, a dream for discipleship, and a lot of prayer. The first three years were foundational years. God used numerous circumstances to teach us about complete dependence, abiding in Christ, and spiritual formation. The second three years were formative years. God developed Life into a loving community with a heart for Kingdom activity. The most recent years have been expanding years. God has allowed the ministries of Life to serve the world. Along the way, we've gone from a handful of inexperienced followers to a thriving New Testament church. We've seen over 450 people enter relationship with Christ and hundreds of others developed as disciples. We actively serve the community through partnerships with the Clark County School District, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, various coffee houses, and several other civic minded groups. Since 2004, we've been able to join in God's Kingdom activity in 18 countries.
