At Lead. Love. Unite. we believe that God is on the move in our generation and in the local church. We exist to change the world. We thrive in communities of people whose hearts desire is leave a legacy and inheritance for future generations. We have no time for passionless living. We really believe that God is who he says he is and does what he says he will do. We exist because nothing that changes the world stays the same.

Our journey is to equip a generation to lead the bride, love the bride, and unite the bride in order that the world would be changed.


Our What We Believe and About sections are where you can find info on our vision, who we are, and what we believe.

Our Couch Time pages are collections of thoughts regarding  major ideas in regards to the local church and life from lots of different collaborators.


Every generation exists for a purpose. Each person that exists within a generation does so for a reason. In our make up as people is the desire to matter. To have a cause that burns within our hearts that drives every area of our life's decisions. When we come to know Jesus and decide to follow him wherever he goes and whatever it costs we begin to find a cause much greater than our individual selves.

In an instant we are connected to everyone in all of history who has made this same decision before us, and simultaneously connected to every individual that will come after us and follow in our footsteps.

As we follow Jesus our cause is to know him, love him, and make him known.

If we look at His story and the stories of those who have gone before us we begin to understand and realize that the means by which this tends to happen is through what we have come to define as the local church.

Good, bad, ugly, indifferent, whatever our thoughts may be towards the images and emotions which this word or idea conjurers up we still can agree upon this idea, that despite its' failings the local church exists for some purpose and reason.

The generations all define and characterize this thing, the local church, differently and believe passionately for a very large number of very different reasons.

Each generation that has walked the earth following Jesus has played a role in the story of the church. In recent history the generations have redefined what church looks like and feels like and now a new generation is waiting its turn to be thrust into the spotlight of leading the local expression of the Church.

What if there were a generation that responded to this waiting with vision and passion?

What if there were a group of individuals that took the responsibility of shaping the local church as being the cause for which they were born?

Lead. Love. Unite. is a movement geared toward raising up such a generation. There will be a moment when the eyes of history and the hopes of future generations turn towards those of us alive today and with bated breath they will watch to see how we handle the responsibility of making God famous on the earth.

Will our lives and our stories stain the pages of history or be drowned out by the monotony of the mundane of maintaining what has become the local church?
