I didn’t set out to start a new church. But things changed when my wife asked a simple question: “What if we planted a church right here?” It wasn’t a strategy. It wasn’t a job opportunity. It was a sense that God was inviting us to do something bold—for the place we call home.
For years, it’s been on my heart to love my actual neighbors—to be present and intentional with the people God has placed around us. When we moved to this area, we made it a point to get to know the people next door. We waved when they drove by, dropped off holiday gifts, and took time to have real conversations. They did the same. We’ve been invited to family parties, shared meals, and built friendships. That kind of everyday faithfulness has made us love this neighborhood even more.
Rowan County is growing—and like every growing place, it needs more than development. It needs hope. It needs community. It needs the gospel.
We’re planting Multiply Church Rowan because we believe the local church is still one of the most powerful ways to bring life and transformation to a community. We want to see people from every background experience the love of Jesus, become disciples, and live out their faith where it matters most—in their homes, neighborhoods, and workplaces.
As we take this next step, we’re excited to meet more neighbors and encourage them to love the people God has placed around them. That’s why we’re planting Multiply Church Rowan. We’re not just starting a Sunday service—we’re building a church family. A place where young families, students, and everyday people can find life, freedom, and purpose through Jesus.
