Who we are
Jacob’s Well is a Holistic, Missional, Christian Community. We understand and express our identity in three primary ways: Forming, Living, and Extending the Life of God in Christ. We believe that the scope of our work lies in five commitments: Worship, Creativity, Learning, Hospitality, and Justice.
Jacob’s Well began in June 1998, our mission to join God in his work in the world: helping people, whatever their story, to live life to the full. We seek to be an authentic, biblical community where people experience and express the reality of God’s love.
At the center of our dream is a person, Jesus Christ. We believe he is the reality of God’s love. When God revealed himself to people who were broken and alienated from him, he did so through weakness — coming as a man who lived and suffered and died. Jesus Christ is at the heart of our church. Without him, we would simply be another group of people with good intentions. With him at our core, we are an expression of his church, one of God’s instruments for accomplishing his purposes in the world.
We believe that any community calling itself a church lives in the tension between two realities. Our community is a part of the larger story of God’s activity in the world. Our church revolves around the story of God and his people found in our scriptures, the Bible. We are biblical — we live and struggle within the boundaries the scriptures give us. We are also authentic. We believe that God is honored and lives are transformed when people are honest, genuine, and real, exposing their brokenness to God and to others. We try not to wear masks. We believe that living the tension of being biblically-based and authentic is a challenge, but one that is incredibly exciting and life-giving.
What is the response of this community to God’s reality present in our midst? We believe it is a two-fold response. We are invited to experience the reality of God’s love for us in our own lives. We are invited to worship God, to grow in our knowledge and obedience to him, to experience his presence in our community. But it doesn’t end there. God’s life is not given for merely selfish reasons. We are also invited to express God’s love in the world in real, tangible ways, and to share what we know about Jesus with those who do not know him. Christianity is a way of life that sends us into the world to serve God and our neighbors so that God’s will is done on earth as it is in heaven. The church is never to be a withdrawn, isolated end user of the gospel of Jesus; rather, we receive it so that we may be equipped and sent into the world to love our neighbors and serve “the least of these.” In this sense, Jacob’s Well doesn’t have a mission; it is mission.
In saying all that, we are trying to explore three essential relationships together:

Abide with us
O Holy Spirit of God, abide with us; inspire all our thoughts; pervade our imaginations; suggest all our decisions; order all our doings. Be with us in our silence and in our speech, in our haste and in our leisure, in company and in solitude, in the freshness of the morning and in the weariness of the evening; and give us grace at all times humbly to rejoice in Thy mysterious companionship.
