About Us

We are a body of Christians in Springfield, Ohio whose emphasis is on loving God and showing God's love to others. You will notice that our name only has one capital letter in it. It is God whom we are focused on. We're not much into personal titles, labels and making distinctions among us. Rather than being an incorporated institutional church, we are an organic body of believers. We recognize that we are all equal brothers and sisters in Christ and we operate in a shared leadership manner.

We selected the name new covenant church of God because it best describes who we are and what we represent. First, we are thankful for the new covenant that God has brought about for His people. The old covenant, found in the Old Testament, failed to consistently bring man into a lasting and personal relationship with God. It was about keeping laws and commandments. The new covenant, found throughout the New Testament, is about having a personal relationship with God, through Jesus Christ. In the middle of these two covenants is the cross.  What a wonderful Saviour is Jesus Our Lord!

Secondly, we chose church of God, because this represents the fact that we have been called out of a life of sin and we now gather together as God's people. He owns us and we are not our own. We do not view this expression as a mere title, but rather as a complete privilege to come together as a people of God! A called out assembly of saints. What a wonderful Heavenly Father!

We assemble ourselves throughout the week in various ways. Typically, on Sunday mornings and evenings, we meet at a rented conference room at the Marriott Inn, in downtown Springfield, Ohio. Our meetings start at 10:30 AM and 6:00 PM. These gatherings are quite informal and are a representation of the organic manner in which the church met, as described in the New Testament. We strive to allow the Holy Spirit to lead our meetings, each member edifying each other through the gifts of the Spirit. On Wednesdays, we meet in homes or in other locations. These meetings start at 7:00 PM.

We also are involved in several other ministries, including conducting services at a local health care facility.

Everyone is welcome to any of our meetings.
