About Us

We are a non-denominational body of Christians in Springfield, Ohio whose emphasis is on loving God and showing God's love to others. We're not much into personal titles, labels and making distinctions among ourselves. We consider ourselves more of a family than an organization. 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.

While we put little to no focus on a name or title, we use the name new covenant church of God because it best describes who we are and what we represent. You will notice that this phrase has only one capital letter in it. It is God whom we are focused on. We are also 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, the expression "church of God" is used 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 God's family. What a wonderful Heavenly Father!

We assemble ourselves throughout the week in various ways. We have chosen not to acquire a building or chapel because our is purpose is to go out into the world with the Gospel rather than call people into a specific building and also because we chose not to incur unnecessary temporal expenses. We gather in houses, parks, rest homes, rented conference rooms, and just about anywhere we came all come together. These gatherings are quite informal and organic in nature. We strive to allow the Holy Spirit to lead our meetings in all things, each member edifying each other through the ministering gifts of the Spirit.

Everyone is welcome to any of our meetings.  Please contact us in advance regarding our meeting locations as it changes from time to time.
