I Am 101 introduction

At I AM Church, we believe following Jesus is more than just attending church—it’s about becoming part of a family where you can belong, grow, and live out your faith with purpose. This 101 Introductory Course is designed to help you understand who we are, what we believe, and how you can be part of the mission God has given us.

About the course

The I AM 101 Course is more than just information—it’s a conversation. Each session will be held in a small group setting, where you’ll have the opportunity to discuss, ask questions, and connect with others who are also taking their next steps in faith. Together, we’ll talk about:
  • Our Churches Beliefs and Core Doctrines
  • Our church’s vision and goals for every member
  • How you can develop or use your God-given skills to serve the Kingdom
  • Practical ways to grow deeper in your faith
  • How to confidently share your faith with others

Because we are a non-denominational church, it’s important to understand what we believe theologically and why. This course will walk you through those foundational beliefs so you can confidently grow in faith and be unified with the body of Christ.

Our heart is to walk alongside you, encouraging and supporting you as you strengthen your relationship with God. This is a space to learn, to grow, and to discover how you can make an eternal impact—both inside and outside the church.
