About

A church rooted in Scripture and shaped by real community.

A place to belong, grow, and follow Jesus together.

Discovery Church is a warm, Scripture-centered community where people of all ages grow in faith through genuine relationships. We believe faith isn’t something to perform—it’s something to live out together. And we believe real spiritual growth happens best in community.

Whether you’re new to church, returning after some time away, or simply looking for something deeper, Discovery is a place where truth and love meet, where questions are welcome, and where people are known and cared for.

Our Story

Discovery Church has been part of this community since 1855. Originally known as First Baptist Church, the congregation has faithfully served through generations of change—moving locations, welcoming new leaders, and adapting along the way.

In 2003, the church became Discovery Church. The name reflects something we’ve always believed to be true: faith is a journey. It’s about learning, growing, and continually discovering who Jesus is and how He shapes our lives.

Today, Discovery is a multi-generational and multi-ethnic Church with young families, students, and longtime members worshiping side by side. We’re committed to teaching God’s Word clearly, building meaningful relationships, and serving our community with humility and care.

While methods and seasons change, our foundation remains the same—faithfulness to Scripture and a desire to help people know Jesus and grow in Him.

What Shapes Our Community

At the heart of Discovery are a few simple commitments that guide how we live, worship, and serve together:

Scripture at the center
The Bible is our foundation. We open it together, teach from it clearly, and let it shape how we live.

Authentic community
Faith grows best in real relationships. We value honesty, friendship, and walking alongside one another through all seasons of life.

Radical hospitality
From the moment you walk through the doors, you’ll be welcomed with warmth and sincerity. No pressure—just genuine care.

Generational and ethnic unity
We’re a church made up of different ages, backgrounds, and cultures, united in Christ and learning to worship together as one family.

A heart to serve
We don’t exist just for ourselves. We use our building, our time, and our gifts to serve our neighbors and care for our community.
