The Garden Church
The Garden is a church for skeptics and saints.
It's a church where your bartender could get baptized, where broken marriages are restored, and the last person you'd see in church might be lit on fire by the hope of the Gospel.
The Garden is a church that's not bashful about truth but enthusiastic about rich theology so that Christians young and old might be fully equipped.
We long to see the whole West Valley renewed by the power and beauty of Jesus.
