Core Values
Godspeed Church is built on six pillar values and then a list of subvalues that come out of those. These six values come from our understanding of Jesus and the teaching in the Bible, and we think these ought to be the key values of any Christian church. They are:
Gathering
Truth
Christ-Centered Relationships
Love for the Whole Body of Christ
Disciple-Making
The Community
Gathering
Bloomington Normal, IL, is our community. And we will use our gifts to build relationships and be good neighbors to everyone, making this area a better place to live through sharing the love of Jesus.
Truth
Jesus is the way, the life, and the truth. We value knowing the truth and living the truth. This means we tell the truth, accept the truth, and submit ourselves to the truth. We know when faced with the opportunity to accept and tell the truth, that the outcome of the truth is the right outcome.
Christ-Centered Relationships
We believe in the Word of God revealed in Scripture, and we have a reverence for the truth on every level. When we meet, we consider the truth of who God is, what he has done, and who we are in light of this truth.
Love for the Whole Body of Christ
We believe in loving the whole body of Christ. That means we support and champion all local Bible believing churches and the community of Christians in the Bloomington area.
Disciple-Making
A New Testament local church is a worshipping body. Believers can learn the Bible and how to live out its principles. But a church is also here for the purpose of reaching others with the message of the gospel—that Jesus died for us to save us into His Church. That’s why a major focus of any local church should be making other disciples by sharing the message of the gospel, welcoming people into the church family, and equipping them to join in that mission.

Meet Our Pastor

Small Groups
Church life is all about people, so we meet weekly in small groups to dig into the Bible, discuss its meaning, and apply it to our lives as we seek to be students of Jesus. In these groups we seek to support one another through encouragement, prayer, and helping.
