We believe God meets people exactly where they are, and so do we.

Common Questions

Things You Might Be Wondering

Do I have to have it all figured out?

Not at all. Faith is a journey, not a destination. St. Paul is a place where questions are welcome, and doubt is not something to be ashamed of. We are all works in progress.

What if I don’t know anything about the Bible?

That is completely fine. Our worship services, Sunday School classes, and small groups are designed to be accessible to people at every level of biblical knowledge. You will never feel lost or out of place.

Will I be pressured or judged?

Never. St. Paul is a grace-filled community where everyone is accepted as they are. We believe it is God’s job to change people and our job to love them.

What if I have had a bad experience with church before?

We are sorry that happened. Not every church experience reflects the heart of Jesus, and we understand why some people carry wounds from past church experiences. We hope St. Paul can be a place of healing and a fresh start.
