Oak City Church was planted fall of 2021 in the heart of the community with the community at its heart.
Why the name Oak City Church?
They will be called oaks of righteousness a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. (Isaiah 61:3)
It is clear that as people engage and encounter the Holy spirit, they find freedom and walk in wholeness. After having such an encounter then they begin to walk out their purpose by being planted and steadfast as an “oak of righteousness” for one reason, to declare the goodness of God and what he has done in and through their lives.
As for Oak trees there is symbolism of solidity, majestic and permanence, of being rooted. Oaks are said to take 300 years to grow, 300 years to live and 300 years to die. Believers do best when they believe with others. Some of us enjoy solitude, but we are not meant to be alone. Being with others straightens us out. It encourages us to reach higher. We're more useful. God crowns the defeated, broken-heated captives with glory and makes them “oaks of righteousness” growing strong together.
This is the place OF HOPE for you!
This is place where we believe it is our goal as a community to equip you so you can discover and cultivate your purpose, while you engage those around you in authentic community. In doing so we believe it is our mandate to engage the world we live in while expanding the kingdom of God. We believe no person should be left behind on this journey we call life, and Oak City is that place for you, we are not just like family we are family!
