It is critical that we understand what real faith is, and is not. Faith is not mere belief, for as James says, even demons believe in that sense.
One Hope Church - Where faith and life connect Join us each Sunday for worship at 9:30am @ Ocean5 or from home.
One Hope Church is a multi-denominational Christian Church committed to the ministry and mission of Jesus. We serve and support various local, national, and international Christian efforts. We don't own our own building but rather we rent Sunday morning worship space at the Ocean5 social gathering place. This enables us to release additional funds toward our mission and ministry efforts as well as supports our vision to take the church to where the community gathers.
