What changes us? Relationships...

“Inevitably, what changes people’s lives is not some concept or principle. It’s not some bestselling self-help book or the memorizing of Scripture. Instead, what powerfully transforms, over and over and over again, is relationship. It’s the presence of Jesus embodied in a friend, a therapist, a pastor, a group, in Christ’s broken body shared in the Lord’s Supper. It’s a palpable taste of shalom.

It’s the relationship that transforms.”

-Chuck Degroat, Leaving Egypt, p. 201



Starting Point at Cedar Springs is first and foremost an exploration of, and an invitation to, relationships-with others and with God. Join us as we seek to realize how our lives, our journeys, our stories are remarkable parts of a grand, relational narrative. It's messy, it's mysterious, and it is beautiful.
