ABOUT US

What We Believe.

  • The Bible is the inspired word of God.

  • There is one true God.

  • The Deity of Jesus Christ.

  • All people are created in the image of God and have eternal value.

  • Mankind is fundamentally sinful and in need of a savior.

  • Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone.

  • The local church is a movement of God’s people to fulfill the Great Commission.

Our Vision.

Until Earth Looks Like Heaven. 

Church isn’t a building, an event, or an institution. It’s a family. We are the church. Our goal is to be a community of people who genuinely love and serve one another. A diverse community where people of all ages, cultures, and socioeconomic standings join together to give the world a picture of what heaven looks like. And together, we do whatever we can to take the hope of Jesus to our families, friends, communities, and the world.

Matthew 6:10 NIV “your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

Our Pastor.

Our Senior Pastor, Tavner Smith, has a heart to reach people with the message of hope in Jesus. He desires to see the walls of shame, racism, and religion come down in the lives of people so that they can experience their fullest life in Christ. After receiving his ordination through Redemption International in 2012, He moved to Chattanooga to plant Venue Church and in 2024 planted Hope House. Since then, his messages have had a global impact through digital media and nationwide platforms. He and his three girls, Averi, Emeri, and Presli, live in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
