services
If you've never been to The Story Church, joining us for a Sunday services is a great place to start!
Sunday services at The Story are focused around knowing and becoming more like Jesus Christ. Expect engaging biblical and practical teaching, upbeat and heartfelt worship through music, stories of changed lives, and opportunities to connect with others around a cup of coffee.
We offer experiences that are age-appropriate for your entire family. During the services, your kids (infant-5th grade) are invited to our kids’ ministry where they'll enjoy Jesus-centered teaching, games, and so much more!

CURRENT sermon series
We all have a little control freak in us. That part of you that obsessively checks social media, reads too much into her tone, rehearses fights in your head that may never happen, or catastrophizes every situation. The biblical story of Jacob is about a life formed by fear, manipulation, and that compulsive need to keep things from slipping out of our hands. Because sometimes the more control we try to gain, the more control we actually lose. Maybe true freedom begins when our white knuckles become open hands… This is Control Freaks.
UNTIL ZERO PEOPLE REMAIN
UNCHANGED BY JESUS
The Story Church is part of a network made up of four churches that share the vision for zeros in our community. The Zero Collective is a family of churches fully sold out to the mission of seeing ZERO people in the Greater Grand Rapids area living unchanged by Jesus. This “only God” vision is what drives us and keeps us up at night. It shapes how we do church. It’s why we put disciple-making over everything else. It’s what inspires us to engage our city in new and creative ways. Together, we can be more than just a network of churches. We can be movement of multiplication and a catalyst for Kingdom expansion.
These 5 ZEROS are what guides everything we do:
