Overcome was not created to be like other churches. In fact, the goal of Overcome was to stay small! We wanted to really strip down everything to focus on two things - PREACHING and SERVING. At Overcome the Word of God is what is of primary importance. It is from that Word that we go and serve as Christ calls us to love a broken world.
When the first Church started, it was in response to the love of Jesus. We don’t know how many people were in the first Church, but numbers did not matter. What mattered most were people living out the call of Christ in community and love. OVERCOME strives to be just that.
We know that in Acts 2:42-47 the early church gave us the model for a true and authentic expresssion of God's love. It did several things that we at Overcome try to emmulate. Check them out below!
