Making disciples who make disciples
Church of the Living Christ is an Assemblies of God church. Our mission is to make disciples who make disciples (Matthew 28:19).
We look forward to seeing you on Sundays at 10:00 am for our Worship Service.
What Would You Do, Part 1: Into the Unknown. Abraham’s faith in God resulted in obedience to God, even when he didn’t know what the outcome would be. This is a remarkable trait of all those who trust God fully.
“By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.” (Hebrews 11:8, NIV)
Leon Morris (1914-2006), an Australian New Testament scholar, made an interesting observation about Hebrews 11:8. He said that the phrase “When called”
“…indicates a very prompt obedience. ‘He obeyed the call while (so to say) it was still sounding in his ears.’”
In other words, there was no hesitation in Abraham. He heard God and acted. His prompt obedience took him out of the “comforts of home” to a region that was unknown to him, but which God said he would later receive as his possession.
In the early ’60s, the Assemblies of God church of Canoga Park planted a new church in Simi Valley. The gatherings were held in a home on the east end of the valley until the house-church purchased the property at 171 Royal Avenue. Over the decades we have seen God move in powerful ways, transform lives, and the future looks bright!
We are taking intentional steps to meet the needs of a post-Christian world that is embedded in a postmodern cultural context. We believe the Gospel is “the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes” and are committed to living for Jesus in a secular world while loving people with the love of Christ (Romans 1:16).
We’d love to meet you in person. If you would like to visit our church, our campus is located on the west end of Simi Valley. Click on the following link for directions: Church of the Living Christ
