Our Story
One Church was birthed from a merger between two existing churches. C4, a church plant that was still young in it’s story and another, First Wesleyan Church that had many chapters. In merging, One Church shifted to a multi-ethnic, multicultural, multi-generational, and multi-economic group of families. Through prayer, worship, and God’s direction, we desire to see a family that grows into a single community reflecting every culture, color, class, and background for the betterment of man and for the glory of God.
multiethnic, multigenerational,
multieconomic.
OUR CITY
High Point is home to over 51 nationalities. These communities that surround High Point - Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Thomasville, and Asheboro, have a rich culture on their own and together mimic the diversity to be seen in Heaven. One Church in High Point was created to unite these communities and cultures under one roof, and becoming an answer to Jesus’ prayer that we would become one so that the world may believe.
OUR Mission
One Church exists to embody Jesus’ prayer in John 17, to be one so the world may believe, and to share God’s love throughout High Point.
OUR CORE PILLARS
SEEK
We pursue those far from God with relentless love and intentionality, believing every person is made in His image and worth the search. We live on mission wherever we go. In our homes, schools, workplaces, and city so that others may encounter the hope of Jesus through our lives.
SERVE
We live to serve others with the same humility and compassion that Jesus modeled. Whether in our church, our neighborhoods, or across the world, we pour out our time, talents, and resources to meet needs, break barriers, and reflect God’s heart for people. Service is not a task it’s our way of life.
SEND
We are a sending people, committed to equipping and empowering disciples who will carry the gospel beyond our walls. We invest in leaders, plant churches, and partner with God’s mission to bring transformation to our city and the nations. Our goal is not just to gather, but to go boldly and obediently.
STAY
We choose to stay rooted in God’s presence, led by His Spirit, and grounded in His Word. In a world that rushes ahead, we learn to wait, to trust His timing, listen for His voice, and move only when He leads. Our strength and success come not from striving, but from abiding.
OUR BELIEFS
We believe in one God, who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and the Savior of all who put their faith in him alone for eternal life.
We believe that those who are made new in Christ are called to be holy in character and conduct and can only live this way by being filled with the Lord’s Spirit.
We believe in the Bible and its sufficiency to establish our faith and conduct.
We believe God wills for people everywhere to know him and be made new in Christ.
We believe that the purpose of the Church is to worship God in spirit and in truth, and to reach a lost and fallen world with the gospel of Jesus Christ through its worship, witness and loving deeds.

OUR VALUEs
Unity in Diversity: There is intrinsic value in every person. Biblical unity becomes all the more important and beautiful in the light of the wide-ranging differences in personalities, cultures, races, languages, talents, and perspectives. Finding unity and mutual love in Christ eliminates devaluation and deprivation of life to one another.
Big Faith. Big Asks: God tells us that if we have the smallest of faith - the size of a mustard seed - that mountains can move. If we want God to do something big, we have to ask for the big things. Sometimes we ask with “ums”, “if’s”, and with doubts, and sometimes we haven’t asked because we’re trying to get to that place ourselves. God may say “No”, we hope for a “Yes”, and sometimes His response is “Not yet”. We hope that you will grow, as our team has, to have a trusting faith in God for Big Things. We may not have what we’ve wanted or needed because we simply haven’t asked God yet. Let’s lay down our tools, not in ceasing, but to hand them over to God for him to do greater things than we ever can.
GIVE 1 GET 1: We believe that in order to give God our best, we have to take the time to rest. GIVE 1 Get 1 is our focus on Sabbath and rest. We believe that if you are pouring out into others, you need the time and rest to be poured into. This means that we ask you only serve every other week. You serve 1 week and get 1 week to rest and be served.
We Forsake Our Preference for the Sake of the Gospel: We believe that in order to spread the good news of Christ, we must set aside our preferences so that others may enjoy God and glorify Him. That means our preference of language, style, environment, comfort, and themes will not be a hindrance to the expansion of God’s Kingdom.
Because there are a lot of cultural issues that you may want to know our position on…
