The Local Church

It has been said, “The church is the hope of the world.” DFC is committed to empowering pastors and local leadership teams to maximize their ability to advance the kingdom of God through the local church. The church is not just another organization. It’s a living organism that continues to grow daily around the world and we want to encourage it’s continued growth and expansion. Though churches come in all different shapes and sizes, we believe every church can be significant.

It’s the passion of DFC to help every church experience significance in its local community. As we journey down the path to significance, authentic relationships are formed that empower, encourage, and strengthen the church. Jesus said, “Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell would not prevail against it”. Jesus is building the church worldwide and we’re committed to being a network that launches new churches and empowers existing churches.

Someone once said, “You can be committed to Church but not committed to Christ, but you cannot be committed to Christ and not committed to church”. The church is not a building. The church consists of people who have been transformed by the grace of God and empowered by the Holy Spirit to be agents of transformation in our world. DFC exist to partner with Jesus in the work of building his church.
