Who we are
Johns Creek United Methodist Church aims to create a community of faith that invites our neighbors into a deepening relationship with God, each other, and the world.
Vision:
To create a community of faith that invites our neighbors into a deepening relationship with God, each other, and the world.
Mission:
The mission of Johns Creek United Methodist Church, consistent with the mission of its denomination, is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
Johns Creek UMC organizes its disciple-making work around three strategic ministry areas:
Gathering a diverse community for worship and Christian fellowship;
Growing persons into disciples of Jesus who reflect, serve, and embody his life and witness; and
Going into the world at the command of Jesus, who empowers us by his Spirit for service, sacrifice, and love to, for, and with the world he is reconciling to his Father.
These three strategic ministry priorities are more than organizational placeholders; they represent the natural rhythms of life within the Church and serve to define the contours of our work within the broader Johns Creek community. If world-transforming disciple-making is what we do, then gathering, growing, and going is how we do it.
Consistent with our mission, Johns Creek UMC aims to transform the world through our disciple-making work. Since Jesus’ world-transforming work in the Gospels was always local, we believe that, as the church, our greatest contribution to the world will be a people who are deeply committed to the ways of Jesus within their local community as a witness to the world of the redeeming triumph of Jesus’ love.

Rev. Max Vincent is a Georgia native who is the son of a Methodist minister. He graduated from Franklin County High School (1988) and went to Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina. He spent the summer of 1989 working on an archaeology site in Ashkelon, Israel. While at Wofford he was the first director of their new student volunteer program. In May 1991 he received a BA with a major in Religion.
He began studying at Duke Divinity School in the Fall of 1991. The following summer he was awarded a three-week study grant to visit Syria, Jordan, Israel, and Greece. For the 1992-93 academic year, Reverend Vincent studied theology at the University of Bonn, Germany. He returned to Duke in the fall of 1993 and completed a Master of Divinity in 1995, and in 1996 he completed a Master of Theology in preaching and theology.
He married Kristen who is a native of Texas in 1995. She received a BA in religion from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. In 1996, Kristen earned a Master of Theological Studies from Duke Divinity School. After years of working in social justice and nonprofits, she is now a spiritual director and retreat leader, and is a Certified Narrative Enneagram Practitioner. Kristen has authored four books on spiritual formation, including one that they coauthored.
Since finishing seminary, Reverend Vincent has served as a pastor in North Carolina and Georgia. For four years he was a chaplain at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, and he is currently serving as the senior pastor, here at Johns Creek UMC!
Their son Matthew is a student at Carleton College in Minnesota. He loves soccer, playing electric guitar, art, reading, and travel.
Kristen enjoys travel, decorating, reading, walking their dog, Gracie, and entertaining their cat, Rhino.
